艺人资料

Meg&Dia时期

2004年,同姐姐Meg Frampton创立meg&dia乐团,还有3名分别是Nicholas Price,Jonthan Snyder,Carlo Gimenez。

2005年,她们为了音乐事业放弃了大学而来到盐湖城继续她们的音乐梦想。同年发行了他们的第一张专辑《Our Home Is Gone》,那时候乐队只有Frampton姐妹两个人,姐姐Meg作为吉他手支持着主唱妹妹Dia。

2006年,1月她们录制了第二张专辑《Something Real》,由American Hi-Fi 的Stacy Jones和 Bill Leffler为她们生产。7月,作为这张专辑的后续,Meg & Dia 分别在iTunes和Tower Records网站上发布了EP《What Is It? A Fender Bender》。这张EP主打Monster和Indiana,并且将作为该专辑的一部分。8月8日,《Something Real》有了新版本,乐队重新录制了"Indiana", "Masterpiece", 和 "Nineteen Stars"这三首歌,还把歌曲"Timmy" 中的一些元素包含到"Roses"里面。

同年9月Meg & Dia在MySpace主页上宣布吉他手Kenji Chan离开乐队单飞了。他的离开并没有矛盾或是不愉快。后来乐队通过YouTube找到了加拿大的吉他手Carlo Gimenez,乐队又变成完整的5个人。

乐队通过MySpace的自我推销增加了不少人气,在Warped Tour 2006中,他们被选中作为MySpace官方乐队。被选为官方乐队的过程是挺戏剧的,他们希望技术人员关闭Meg & Dia的MySpace官网由于有个粉丝在他们的网站上方了一个病毒插件。然而,这个技术上的困难导致乐队受到了MySpace创始人之一Tom Anderson的注意,正是他让这支乐队进入了在Warped Tour上MySpace官方乐队的角逐,并且Meg & Dia赢了。Meg & Dia在Warped Tour 2006上的演出是在MySpace帐篷里,泥土平地代替舞台。

2007年,他们重返Warped Tour,这次是在Hurley. com的舞台上。乐队持续举行巡演,在2007年初他们和Anberlin, Jonezetta,还有Bayside乐队一起开全国演唱会,还有在2007年春他们跟Say Anything和Saves The Day合开演唱会。

2007年,2月19号Meg&Dia 确认与华纳兄弟签约,《Rose》是电影《TMNT》的插曲。《Monster》的录影带被提名为mtvU Viral Woodie Award,通过了第一轮的晋级,但在决赛中输给了The Academy Is…的《We’ve Got A Big Mess On Our Hand》,Meg&Dia用《The Split Canvas》《Play Radio Play!》《Treaty of Paris》结束了这一年的巡演。

2007年,年底Meg&Dia宣布2008年在美国开始一次名为Angels & Airwaves 的巡回演出。Color Fred和Ace Enders也同时开始演出。跟着这次巡回之后,乐队在2008年3月17日出发到洛杉矶录制专辑《here,here and here》

2008年,乐队在欧洲开始它的第一个海外旅行,并且得到很多欧洲批评家肯定的评价。 他们已经旅行到像阿姆斯特丹和慕尼黑这样的地方,增加乐队的国际意识。

2008,借着一年一度的Give it a Name节日,Meg & Dia完成了他们在英国的初次露面。乐队在5月10日和5月11日分别在伦敦和谢菲尔德演出 ,并参加了在英格兰,苏格兰和威尔士举行的附加演出。

乐队上一次名为Take Action 2009的巡演赶在了2009专辑发布之前,他们跟想出标题的Cute Is What We Aim For乐队和开场演出者Anarbor Every Avenue和 Breathe Carolina一起演出,全部票销售的部分被捐赠给非赢利的组织。

2009年,4月21日专辑《here,here and here》发行,也就是录音完成的一年多之后。专辑以三种形式发行:CD,CD+DVD组合包以及黑胶唱片。这是与华纳兄弟签约后的第一张专辑(通过Sire Records发行),也是乐队当前阵容的第一张专辑。在音乐上,这张专辑也不同于以往的努力,因为有新乐器的使用(线,音响合成器,口琴和其它的振动),包括客串主唱(Tom Higgenson 客串《Bored Of Your Love》)。在音色上,这张专辑包含了像宗教那样成熟的主题(《Black Wedding》)以及政治(《Are There Giants, Too In The Dance?》).,跟重文学的《Something Real》形成强烈对比,《Here, Here and Here》中只有一首歌最后与一本小说练习到了一起(《Hug me》),并且Dia写了几首歌的来回应她最近的突破。(《Going away》《Kiss you Goodnight》),专辑名字来源于紧接着以其名字命名的一首歌《Here,,Here and Here》,暗指是莫扎特的一句话的一部分“'Here, Here, and here.' He pointed to his heart and mind and ears”。

SOLO时期

2011年,在《美国好声音》的首场淘汰赛电视直播中,Dia的一首翻唱自Kanye West的歌曲《Heartless》拨动了电视机前数以百万计观众的心弦,她以自己柔美的中低音以及对歌曲独一无二的理解在习惯了快节奏音乐的美国乐坛唱响了一曲清新、幽美的Dia旋律。同年6月29日,在《美国好声音》决赛首度亮相的原创新单《Inventing Shadows》仅耗时2小时便打破了Lady GaGa此前创造的iTunes下载榜3小时登顶的记录。

2011年,12月6日Dia发表了流行/独立音乐专辑《Red》,从首单《The Broken Ones》可以看出,Dia在打造这张专辑时仍然带着比赛时清新委婉的风格,而与Blake的合作单曲《I Will》显而易见Blake在音乐上对Dia的影响,使得Dia曲风明显带上了乡村的色彩。

2013年,Dia至继前年发行《Red》后,没有发行新专辑,作为创作型歌手的她表示,目前已经写了75到85首歌,但因为她本人比较挑剔,只挑选出三、四首符合自己的标准,预计新专辑会在2014年正式推出。
