Brittany Marie Amaradio (born 1993),[1] known professionally as Delacey, is an American singer and songwriter.[2] Having co-written songs such as "New York City" for The Chainsmokers, "Ruin the Friendship" for Demi Lovato, and "Without Me" for Halsey (which reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100),[2][3][4] in March 2020, she released her debut album, Black Coffee.[5] She is currently working on her second album The Girl Has A Dream, featuring single "Boy With The Blues."[6]

Early life[edit]

Amaradio was born in an Italian family[7] and raised in San Juan Capistrano in Orange County, California.[8] Picking up the piano and songwriting at seven years old, Amaradio cites her early influences as Stevie Nicks and Billie Holiday, a taste she acquired from her father's vinyl collection.[8] Upon graduating from Capistrano Valley High School,[9] Amaradio briefly moved to Manhattan where she worked as a photographer by day and worked open mics at night.[10] During this time, she wrote "New York City" about her struggles in New York. Upon returning to the West Coast, she adopted the pseudonym "Delacey."[2]
