Since 2023, tracks such as “Tonight (demo),” “Will You Love Me When I’m Dead,” “A Dozen Roses,” and “Everything I Do Is For You” have found an audience worldwide. Meanwhile, national tours alongside acts like Evanescence, The Used, and Story Of The Year, combined with the release of her debut EP, *Skin to Skin*, have further cemented her status as a highly promising newcomer. In 2025, the Los Angeles-based musician will head to Europe for the first time, playing an exclusive headline show on June 9 at the club Bahnhof Ehrenfeld in Cologne.
Raised in Connecticut, Amira Elfeky began playing the violin at a young age and took every music course available at her school. After moving to the Bay Area at the age of 15, she discovered grunge and nu-metal. Inspired by bands such as Nirvana, Linkin Park, and Deftones, she recorded her first songs in a DIY studio belonging to Brandon Iljas, whom she had met through an advertisement. In July 2023, Elfeky released her debut track, “Tonight (demo),” which went viral on TikTok and jump-started her career with a raw, authentic demo sound reminiscent of both Deftones and Evanescence. Following her signing with Anemoia Records, she released the singles “Coming Down” and “Everything I Do Is For You” in 2023, succeeded by “A Dozen Roses” and a cover of the System Of A Down song “Lonely Day.” In March 2024, Amira Elfeky released her debut EP, “Skin to Skin,” which received praise from Billboard, Rolling Stone, and Revolver for its emotional depth and was generally well-received. Following the 2024 singles “Remains Of Us” and “Will You Love Me When I’m Dead,” Amira Elfeky released her latest track, “Death Of Me,” in February 2025. This emotional ballad—featuring acoustic guitars and an alternative rock vibe—stands apart from the explosive metal sound of her EP, highlighting her significant creative potential.
