Dia Frampton started with one dream: the dream to make music -- music that touched the heart and mind, inspirational and intimate. This dream led her to start a band with her sister Meg called Meg & Dia (a band that toured the world with some of the most respected bands in Rock), and unexpectedly to the first season of NBC's hit television series, The Voice. Upon finishing the show, Universal Republic Records signed Dia, and she immediately began working on her solo debut released December 6, 2011. The album's first single, "The Broken Ones" takes flight on the strength of her powerful vocals and heartfelt songwriting. However, it's only a prelude of what lies in store on the record. Preserving her indie roots, she's telling honest stories via every new song that she writes, while channeling an undeniable, upbeat vibe. As a result of that process, she makes inspirational, intimate, and infectious music that draws from indie, pop, and rock influenced by everyone from Tom Petty and Joni Mitchell to The Avett Brothers and Mumford and Sons. Dia declares, "I want to bring it back to the classic singer- songwriter style. It can be magical without all of the bells and whistles."
