DEBUT EP SET FOR RELEASE OCTOBER 18
UNVEILS FIRST SINGLE “C’EST LA VIE”
 |
Rising LA-based artist Isabel Dumaa confirms her forthcoming EP, Just My Nature, and unveils first single “C’est La Vie”—listen/share HERE. Dumaa’s much anticipated debut is set for release October 18. The EP follows the success of last year’s singles “Always Leaving You” and “Quarter Life Crisis,” the latter of which is featured on Just My Nature.
“I like to think of ‘C’est La Vie’ as a sequel to ‘Quarter Life Crisis.’ It’s an honest song of self-reflection, the good and the bad. Almost a dump of all the parts I don’t love about myself and am working on—but also finding acceptance and self-love in that,” Dumaa details.
She continues of the EP, “This project has been a culmination of my life over the past two years, as an artist but also a person. It came straight from my heart, the good and the bad. Traveling through the highs and pitfalls of entering adulthood; the love and heartache, the burnout and growth, the aching for the past, and frisson for the future. I am so excited to share it with all of you.”
Just My Nature finds Dumaa working with acclaimed producers including Tyler Chester, Brandon Shoop (Role Model) Jed Jones (Post Malone), Oscar Neidhardt (Kacey Musgraves), amongst others, with mixing and mastering from James Krause (Beyonce).
Now 21, Dumaa began singing and songwriting at age 10. At age 12, her moms booked her first ever studio session to record songs she had been filling journals with. Upon graduating high school, she relocated from her hometown San Francisco down to Los Angeles and released her debut single, “Call My Bluff”—a song which drew comparisons to Clairo, Remi Wolf and Maggie Rogers—and follow up track “Freshman Year.”
She has developed a passionate social media following, racking up millions of likes on her acoustic covers—her cover of Robin Hood classic “Oo-De-Lally” has accumulated over 11.8 million views across platforms—and teasers of forthcoming music. “Quarter Life Crisis” skyrocketed her monthly listeners and has over 1 million streams and continues to climb, garnering praise from the likes of Ones to Watch, Lyrical Lemonade and more.
“brisk and energetic, propelled by Dumaa’s crystalline vocals and bright
drumming patterns. It’s thoughtful and sincere…” [of ‘Always Leaving You’]  “It takes a lot to stick out in the singer-songwriter space and not
get boxed in, but Dumaa cuts through the noise with her thoughtful storytelling, distinct vocal tone, and tasteful production choices”  “everything about this California-based [21-year-old] has that same classic sound and sonic momentum… the vibes are as strong as an offshore Catalina breeze”
