Mikaela Davis

A singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist who excels at the harp, Mikaela Davis navigates the sounds of folk, country-rock, vintage pop, indie rock, psychedelia, and chamber pop on her textured songs. She emerged in the early 2010s with a handful of harp-accompanied solo covers of indie singer/songwriters, including one of Elliott Smith's "Twilight" that quickly garnered tens of thousands of views. Applying more expansive arrangements to her own material, and relying less and less conspicuously on the harp with time, she made her label debut with the John Congleton-produced Delivery in 2018, then leaned into a merger of modern indie and collaborative, jam-friendly country- and folk-rock for 2023's self-produced Southern Star. A year later, she delivered an official collaboration, After Sunrise, with instrumental psych-rock group Circles Around the Sun. Her fifth solo album, 2026's Graceland Way, featured a roster of marquee contributors, including Madison Cunningham, Tim Heidecker, and Neal Francis.
