DAVEY LEGEND
SUBLIMINAL — SINGLE OUT NOW

AFTER RELOCATING FROM REDDING, CA, LA-BASED ARTIST AND GEN Z DIGITAL NATIVE, DAVEY LEGEND, STRUGGLES WITH HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE POST-WEB 2.0 WORLD. LIKE MANY OF HIS PEERS, THE FABRIC OF DAVEY’S LIFE IS WOVEN WITH MEMES, MODERN TECHNOLOGIES, AND GOOD OLD-FASHIONED PLANT-BASED PROBLEMS. EVEN HIS REAL-LIFE RELATIONSHIPS ARE DEEPLY ENMESHED IN INTERFACES AND SOCIAL MEDIA-CAST MORES RESULTING IN A COMPLICATED DYNAMIC BETWEEN THE REAL WORLD, HIS IMAGINATION, AND THE DIGITAL WORLDS HE INHABITS.

HIDING BEHIND A QUICK JOKE, SOME BRAINROT, AND A SMILE, DAVEY COPES BY CREATING HIS OWN STORIES FULL OF SINCERITY, FRAGILITY, JOY, AND INTROSPECTION.

IT ALL COMES TO LIFE THROUGH DAVEY'S SELF-DESCRIBED “BING BONG BOING” MUSIC, WHICH FEATURES CHARACTERS OF HIS OWN DESIGN THAT PERSONIFY HIS DEMONS, ANXIETIES, AND INNER MONOLOGUE.

_written at a time when it felt like everything in his life was falling apart, davey legend searches for meaning in new song, Subliminal - stating:

_“this song tackles the way i was feeling throughout this whole period, which was… numb. my closest friends and family asked me how i was doing and would say things like, ‘i don't know how you’re still functioning or not breaking down right now’. i wanted to cry or process my emotions, but it felt like everything was several floors down, beneath my consciousness. somewhere i couldn’t access. Somewhere subliminal.”

_far from a genre-purist, davey borrows bits and pieces from hyperpop, midwest emo, hip hop - inspired by artists like eden, 21 pilots, imogen heap, bjork and ericdoa.
