ALIYA is a bold Sydney pop artist entering her hot girl era - fearless, flirty, and unapologetically confident. Evolving from her pop-rock roots, she fuses addictive hooks with an emotional bite, drawing inspiration from artists like Tate McRae, Hayley Williams, and Olivia Rodrigo. 

 

Her music delves into the complexities of relationships, self-reflection, and the whirlwind of thoughts that accompany them. Frequently performing across Sydney, ALIYA has captivated audiences with her blend of fierce confidence and anxious introspection. Her ability to channel this vulnerability into strong, catchy pop anthems has earned her a devoted following.

 

In 2024, ALIYA performed at SXSW, marking a major milestone in her career. She has also been featured on key playlists such as ‘Soft Pop Vibes’, ‘Pop Chillout’, ‘Pop It Up’, and ‘Today’s Pop Hits’. ALIYA’s presence has been recognised in the media, with a live radio interview from Nova 96.9 and Triple H 100.1's incredible host Seth Jayalath on 'Breakfast with Seth’; “Aliya is one of the most exciting and energetic artists emerging out of the Sydney pop-rock scene… Make sure you keep a super strong eye on her, as she will be the next big thing."

 

Anika Luka from Triple J Unearthed summed it up perfectly: "What a boss woman ALIYA is!!!!"
