A Grammy Award winner before the age of 20, Daya virtually grew up onstage. She was a synth-pop innovator from the start, earning a double-platinum hit with "Hide Away" — her self-empowered debut single, co-written when Daya was still in high school — and teaming up with The Chainsmokers for "Don't Let Me Down," a dance anthem that sold more than 10 million copies in America alone. Then, at the height of major-label success, she threw the rulebook out the window and reclaimed her independence. Daya is her own boss these days, and her unique pop music — dreamily ethereal one minute, rhythmically kinetic the next — has never sounded brighter or bolder.

"Creative control means everything to me," says the Pittsburgh native. "I've been writing since I was very young, and it feels so validating to now have the autonomy to truly represent who I am as an artist. I can record any song I want. I can work with whomever I want. It's been important to me to take the reins back."
