King for a Day

2024 · Album

Ethan Avila's eighth album, a meditation on time, blood, and inheritance. Released August 9, 2024, it moves through three acts: a hazy dawn of layered organs and shoegaze, a noon that opens wide with pianos and guitars, and a night that dissolves into synths and pure electronics. Beneath it all, something older. The sounds of ancestors, their rhythms, their silences, their unfinished stories, woven into every track through the lens of genealogy and epigenetics. The past isn't behind you. It's inside you.

Just Kidding

2021 · Album

Ethan Avila's seventh album, released September 3, 2021, born from the wreckage of a mental breakdown and the hard-won clarity that follows removing the wrong people from your life. Rather than look outward, he looked back, deep into the sounds of his own childhood, 1991 to 2009. Soundfonts, plugins, and synths reconstructed the sonic textures of the NES, SNES, N64, and GameCube eras, alongside the tinny magic of the Game Boy Color and Nintendo DS. It is a tribute to the inner child, to 90s kid nostalgia, to video games as emotional memory, and to the quiet, serious work of knowing yourself again.

Indivisible

2020 · Album

Ethan Avila's sixth album, released March 6, 2020, as the United States fractured under the weight of its own politics. The record is built around two instruments he bought as a young teen: a MicroKorg synthesizer from the holidays of 2007, and a red Fender Stratocaster from Christmas 2006. Together they represent his indivisible subconsciousness, the digital and the analog, the future and the past, the inner and the outer worlds, locked in permanent, beautiful conflict.

How to Be a Man

2018 · Album

Ethan Avila's fifth album, released December 14, 2018. Nights spent crying alone. The wrong girls. A feeling of melting, of not quite holding the shape you're supposed to hold. This is a record about the confusion of modern manhood: no map, no instructions, no one who seems to have figured it out either. Raw, searching, and quietly devastating.

Coming of Age

2012 · Album

The debut. Released September 25, 2012, a snapshot of every rite of passage hitting at once. Walking across the stage at high school graduation. The first time behind the wheel alone. Community college hallways that felt like the whole world opening up. Late nights with friends who felt like forever. Turning 21. The wrong dates, the right ones, the ones you still think about. House parties spilling into front lawns. Parking lots at night that somehow became the place to be. The particular electricity of young adulthood, that restless, fearless, fleeting spirit of being alive before life gets complicated. Coming of Age doesn't look back, it lives there.
