Grammy award-winning, 4X platinum artist Daya makes a triumphant return with her newest single, “Demise” – an alt-pop dance stunner that captures the intoxicating, emotional chaos of new love. The track is available now on all DSPs via ONErpm and kicks off a summer of new releases from the decorated songwriter.
“‘Demise’ was such a silly song to write – and one of the most dramatic I’ve ever created,” she shares. “Yet it holds so much truth about those all-encompassing, full-body, obsessive feelings that come when you’re first falling for someone. When suddenly, everything feels like it could either save you or break you.”
“Demise” is a bold follow-up to her May release “Infrared,” and February feature on Dom Dolla’s club smash “Dreamin,” which has already amassed 50M+ streams, peaked at #2 in Australia, and is currently sitting at #1 at U.S. Dance Radio.
2025 also marks the 10th anniversary of Daya’s breakout hit “Hide Away,” which catapulted the Pittsburgh-born artist to superstardom at just 16 years old. The track, now certified 4X platinum, has garnered nearly 700 million streams, recently received a viral remix from Alan Walker (with over 20M streams and 300K+ social media creates), and re-entered the cultural zeitgeist with a fresh alternate version in April.
After her explosive early career success – including her chart-dominating collaboration with The Chainsmokers on “Don’t Let Me Down” (which sold over 10 million copies in the U.S. alone) – Daya has carved a path on her own terms. Her music today is as emotionally rich as it is sonically daring, striking a balance between euphoric pop and raw introspection.
With two major DJ collaborations lined up for later this year and more new music on the way, 2025 is shaping up to be one of Daya’s most ambitious years to date.
