At just 19 years old, d4vd continues to push boundaries, and today, he unveils his latest single, “Crashing” (with Kali Uchis), setting the stage for his highly-anticipated debut album, WITHERED, dropping April 25 via Darkroom/Interscope.

“Crashing” – A Moment of Stillness Before the Storm

On “Crashing,” d4vd opens up about the one person he’d turn to if everything fell apart, delivering a song that marks a pivotal emotional shift in the WITHERED narrative. The track’s smooth, laid-back instrumental provides the perfect space for GRAMMY®-nominated Colombian-American star Kali Uchis, whose presence elevates the song’s melancholic beauty.

D4vd has long admired Uchis' artistry, and after catching a glimpse of her support in 2022, he created “Crashing” with only her in mind. The result? A track that immediately captivated Uchis, carving out a space made just for her.

WITHERED: An Introspective Debut Album

WITHERED follows d4vd’s critically acclaimed first two EPs, Petals to Thorns and The Lost Petals, which introduced him to the world with his signature blend of genre-fluid storytelling. The album takes listeners through the evolution and decay of a rose, a recurring theme in d4vd’s artistic vision. Like chapters in a novel, WITHERED unfolds as a deeply personal exploration of love gained, lost, and ultimately destroyed.

From its soaring choruses to haunting melodies, WITHERED is a testament to d4vd’s innovative approach, blending indie, alternative, R&B, and emo influences into a singular, raw, and immersive experience.

A Creative Process Rooted in Storytelling & Visual Art

For his debut album, d4vd returned to his roots—recording in his sister’s closet in Houston, where he first began creating music on BandLab. Along the way, he collaborated with top-tier producers, including:

🎵 Jack Hallenbeck
🎵 Scott James
🎵 silent$ky
🎵 Ryan Tedder (OneRepublic)
🎵 Tyler Spry

But d4vd’s creativity goes beyond music—he draws inspiration from anime, cinema, and visual storytelling, weaving together recurring themes and characters to craft a distinct artistic universe.
