Meet awfultune, aka 23-year-old Layla Eden. Raconteur, songwriter, storyteller and vocalist who since 2018 has been producing and releasing music independently from a laptop in upstate New York, and now sits on top of over 300 million global streams – officially evolving out of indie bedroom-pop obscurity.

She is both an austere champion of the LGBTQ+ community and a perennial advocate for anyone who’s simply ever felt alone or estranged from themselves.
