Breakout pop musician Daya has announced her debut full-length album, Sit Still, Look Pretty, set for release Friday, October 7th on Artbeatz through Sony Music Entertainment Australia. A preview of the record is now available here. The album will be available for pre-order on September 16th.
Sit Still, Look Pretty caps off a banner breakout year for the 17-year-old Pittsburgh native, who recorded the album in Los Angeles. Executive Produced by Gino "Farrago" Barletta, Daya has cited the album as a continuation of her hit debut EP DAYA, released in September 2015; the record will include the entire EP along with eight new tracks.
'I have been working tirelessly on this record for almost a year now. It's the most authentic representation of me as an artist so far, and each song carries a piece of me," says Daya. 'I'm so grateful for all the support I've received over the past year and it still feels surreal to be releasing my first album. I am so stoked for the world to finally hear it!"
The album's title track and current single, -Sit Still, Look Pretty' rocketed into the Top 10 on the USA iTunes overall songs chart last week. The track also blasted into the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has already amassed more than 80 million streams on Spotify. This marks Daya's third consecutive song – and all her singles to date – to enter the Billboard Top 40, succeeding her recent hits -Hide Away' and -Don't Let Me Down' with The Chainsmokers. The song's music video will make its broadcast prime time premiere September 9 on MTV.
