If you’ve been waiting for a record that sounds like it was unearthed from a sun-bleached crate in a Topanga garage sale — but was actually made in 2026 — Haylie Davis has you covered. The Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter has shared her latest single, “Give Me a Rainbow,” a beautifully rendered slice of country-folk that drifts in on warm steel guitar, gentle acoustic strums, and that unmistakable Laurel Canyon glow.

The track is the newest teaser from Davis’s hotly anticipated debut album, Wandering Star, arriving Friday, June 5 via Fire Records. The LP will be available digitally, on Classic Black Vinyl, Limited Orange Vinyl (a Rough Trade exclusive for the collectors out there), and CD. Pre-orders and pre-saves are live now.

“When you’re at your lowest point, a rainbow can be the difference between hope and hopelessness,” Davis says of the new song. “The clouds will part eventually, and that first sunshine will create a rainbow to show you that there’s a break in the storm.”

Recently christened one of Rolling Stone’s “The Future 25,” Davis has been racking up the kind of press quotes most debut artists only daydream about. Rolling Stone called her work “a cross between Emmylou Harris and the cult psychedelic folk singer Linda Perhacs, with melodies that beam through like Laurel Canyon sunshine.” Shindig! crowned her “one of California’s brightest apparitions,” while Americana UK clocked the “charming echoes of effortlessly cool 70s folk.” It’s the kind of consensus you usually only see when a record is genuinely doing something special — and Wandering Star, by every early indication, is.

Raised in Northern California and now planted in Los Angeles, Davis has spent the last few years quietly building her reputation through collaborations with kindred spirits like Drugdealer, Sylvie, Alex Amen, and Sam Burton. Wandering Star is her formal coming-of-age statement: eleven songs that take stock of the wins, the losses, the friends, the enemies, and the long stretches of highway in between. Previously released singles “Horns of Time,” “Wandering Star,” “Young Man,” “Country Boy,” and “Golden Age” have already telegraphed the album’s strengths — lush production, soaring choruses, and storytelling that lingers long after the needle lifts.

“Even though I feel like I am a part of something, I am doing things my own way,” Davis says. “I’ve made friends, and I’ve made enemies; I’ve gotten lucky, and I’ve struck out. It’s important to remember who you are so you don’t get carried away in the era of algorithms and followers.”

Davis recently previewed the record live at Fire Records’ SXSW 2026 showcase at Hotel Vegas in Austin, and has now confirmed intimate appearances on both sides of the Atlantic. Catch her May 29 in London at Theatreship Canary Wharf (presented by Broadside Hacks) and June 6 in New York for a Rough Trade acoustic in-store at 3 pm. More dates are promised soon.
