The sound of strumming guitars; the feel of soft, wet clay; the scent of fresh brewed coffee: this was Zella Day’s childhood. Secluded in the quaint mountain town of Pinetop, Arizona, Zella’s creativity flourished with the forest at her doorstep. High above Phoenix Valley, Pinetop holds a population of 7,000, and Zella's family-owned Mor Mor Coffee House was an only sanctuary for artists. Surrounding herself with local musicians, Zella was inspired to pick up the guitar at a young age. Before long, the blossoming chanteuse started performing sets including Bob Dylan and Elvis songs - selections inspired by her coffee house family. The native Arizonan had found a calling in music and used it as a form of self-realization, penning her experiences and discovering herself through the intricacies of song. She drew inspiration from the serene Arizona mountains and turned to Clint Eastwood, old Western films, and cowboy rebel culture to help shape the attitude behind her music. The result is a raw, organic sound unconfined by the boundaries of genre. It effortlessly floats between the tonalities of female frontier-maker Stevie Nicks and art pop songbird Lana Del Rey while invoking imagery painted by Old Arizona and a free-spirited perspective.

To date, Zella Day’s music has barely crossed paths with the outside world; however, her short series of self-released demos and collaborations caught fire throughout the indie community. One such supporter of her undeniable talent was the boutique music press outlet B3SCI. Having recently formed a singles record imprint, B3SCI was undoubtedly the natural home for the songwriter's first official offering to the world.

The upcoming two-track single leads with “Sweet Ophelia,” a blending of personal encounters in an eerie resemblance to that of Hamlet’s Ophelia. Crunching drum machines and menacing electronics juxtapose Zella’s airy croons as she sings about the sanctity of physical connection, powerfully portraying both the majesty and fragility of letting love consume you. The B-side, “1965,” takes a more straightforward approach, showcasing Zella’s strong voice atop soft, pattering drums and fluttering guitars. The lyrics tell a story about finding a genuine connection among a sea of inauthenticity. Moreover, the track celebrates its title - the year that a generation united despite a delusive society.

On April 7th, B3SCI Records will release 'Sweet Ophelia / 1965' on limited edition 7-inch clear vinyl. The tracks were brought to life at Los Angeles's WAX LTD. Studios with the production and mixing prowess of Xandy Barry and Wally Gagel. This debut collection showcases a young songstress’ visceral visions and liberated mentality, while foreshadowing the depth of a long career that's yet to come.

Lowlife

Lowlife (Slushii Remix)

"I remember we wrote that song about a gut feeling.  We’re all idealists at heart, so when the perfect life we perceived doesn’t turn out just “perfect”, all the negatives get microscoped.  But inevitably, there’s that moment when something comes along and threatens everything as you know it, and right then, in the eye of the storm, you see things exactly as they are…all the things you have and all the things you’d lose.  And it’s not the yacht or the mountain cabin that make you panic; it’s the people and your closest relationships…and all the little insignificant, nostalgic things associated with them.  You forget about past regret and future worry, and everything just hits the brakes and STOPS.  That’s the moment where you don’t want to change a SINGLE THING.  That’s what that song’s about.  I want to stay right there." - Von Bonneville

LYRICS:
Well I'm sitting here just smiling to myself a deep deep satisfaction
the day after a hurricane the important things you see with no distractions
and from the outside looking in we probably look like some crazy circus attraction
we've come so far, still got a ways to go, there's one thing on my mind, there's one thing i know

I'm right where i Wanna be
What i'm looking for is in front of me
it's taking me so long to see
that i'm right where i wanna be

well we've been through hell and high water, thick and thin, rain or shine
always bailing water from the boat to stay afloat and hold on for dear life
and what's the fun of it if life don't pick you up and take you for a ride
yeah we've come so far, still got a ways to go, there's one thing that makes sense, there's one thing i know

I'm right where i Wanna be
What i'm looking for is in front of me
it's taking me so long to see
that i'm right where i wanna be

Oh nothing beats those moments oh so rare and poetic and so true
listening to the sound of laughter, shouting, playing, fighting and loving too
it's taking me so long to realize i don't have me if i don't have you
if i don't have you

'cause I'm right where i Wanna be
What i'm looking for is in front of me
it's taking me so long to see
that i'm right where i wanna be

Music for your television and local theater.

Right Where I Wanna Be

Roll On

Cold War Kids - Louder Than Ever

Let us live, my Lesbia, and let us love,
and for us every wicked whisper of the old ones
is worth no more than the vilest penny.
The sun may die and then rise again,
but when our brief day ends
we’ll sleep for an infinite night
Give me a thousand kisses, and thereafter one hundred,
then give me another thousand, and thereafter one hundred,
then a thousand, continue, and thereafter one hundred.
And when finally we have kissed many thousands of times
we’ll hide the true number
so that the envious don’t casts the evil eye
on seeing the vast amount of kisses we have shared.
