WITH DEBUT ALBUM NOT AN APOLOGY

 “...one of this year’s most exuberant pop albums...”  
 – Jon Caramanica, New York Times 
August 3, 2015 (Burbank, Calif.) – Bea Miller’s widely anticipated debut LP, Not An Apology,  premiered at #7 on the Billboard  200 chart, #1 on Billboard’s Pop Album Chart, #5 on Billboard’s Digital Album chart and also hit #1 on the iTunes Pop chart and #4 on the iTunes overall album chart in the first week of release.

Jon Caramanica of The New York Times called it “… one of this year’s most exuberant pop albums,” adding, “Ms. Miller is now channeling a mélange of teen-girl pop rebels: the moodiness of Lorde on “Young Blood,” the rock swagger of midperiod Miley Cyrus on the excellent “Fire N Gold,” and yes, the snottiness of Avril Lavigne’s first album on “Rich Kids.” Billboard declared, “…Not An Apology overflows with defiantly sneering rock…explicitly—and effectively – positions her as a teenage rebel.”
The impressive list of accolades includes:  Rolling Stone, who spotlighted Bea in their coveted “10 Artists You Need To Know” noting her songs sound like, “All the best Nineties teen movies compressed into three minute pop jams,” BuzzFeed naming “Force of Nature” one of the 40 Pop Songs You Can’t Miss This Summer and “Young Blood” one of 5 underrated songs of 2014 saying, “With singles like “Fire n’ Gold” and “Young Blood,” Miller is making her way to be the next Lorde,” ELLE Magazine calling her an “...X Factor contender turned newly minted pop star,” and most recently a Teen Choice nomination for Next Big Thing. Bea was also featured in V Magazine and Teen Vogue’s music issue and performed current single “Fire N Gold” on The Today Show.   The video for the track combined with the lyric video has surpassed 8.8 million views and Bea’s combined Vevo views have surpassed 22 million while her Spotify streams are over 23 million to date.
Not An Apology features several tracks co-written by Bea (including her debut single “Young Blood,” a darkly charged anthem that hit the Billboard Hot 100 soon after its April 2014 release) and mines her everyday experience for unapologetically honest lyrics about everything from bullying and backstabbers to isolation and breakup angst.
To capture the tension between toughness and vulnerability that propels much of Not An Apology, Bea teamed up with producers like busbee (P!nk, Kelly Clarkson), Jarrad Rogers (Icona Pop, Demi Lovato), Mike Del Rio (Kylie Minogue, Selena Gomez), and Matt Squire (Ariana Grande, Ke$ha) to craft a melody-fueled mix of gritty guitar riffs, fuzzed-out grooves, and awesomely heady beats.
Bea, who previously toured with Demi Lovato, is currently on the road with Fifth Harmony.  That tour will culminate in an already sold-out show at New York City’s  Beacon Theater on Aug. 27.   A fall headlining tour is in the works with dates to be announced shortly.
