Spend five minutes with Amelia Moore, and you’ll understand why she doesn’t do things halfway. Whether she’s breaking hearts in a song or breaking rules in the studio, there’s an electric honesty to everything she touches. With her unapologetic energy and unmistakable orange hair, Amelia doesn’t just step onto the stage, she claims it, making sure you see her before you even hear her. The Georgia-born, LA-based artist isn’t just shaping alt-pop and R&B in her image—she’s tearing up the blueprint and scribbling something wildly new in its place.
You might already know her story: homeschooled theater kid. College dropout. Self-taught producer. A girl with a dream and no plan B. Since then, she’s landed a collab with Timbaland, played Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, and earned Apple Music’s “Up Next” spotlight. But ask Amelia what matters most right now, and she doesn’t talk about accolades—she talks about the songs.
Her upcoming EP, he’s still just not that into you, is Amelia in her most honest form yet: messy, funny, heartbroken, and unfiltered. It’s a project rooted in lighthearted honesty and razor-sharp self-awareness, full of hooks that sneak up on you and stick. “The only way I know how to write is from a vulnerable place,” she says. And when she hits a creative block, it’s usually a sign she’s not really living—so she turns to life, love, and even late-night TV drama for inspiration.
Take the lead single, “fuck, marry, kill,” a darkly clever anthem that arrived last month as a taste of what’s to come. Moore hoped it would excite her fans—and it did—but more than that, it set the tone for the EP’s chaotic emotional range. She's a master of catchy choruses, and she knows she’s nailed one when it’s stuck in her own head for days.
The visualizer for “fuck, marry, kill” leans all the way into the chaos—with nods to her now-iconic orange hair woven into the set design. “I knew the hair had to be part of it,” she says. “Hair has so much energy, so much meaning. Letting your hair down, being so crazy about someone that you don't know what to do. The drama of it all. I needed that length to get the drama out.” For Amelia, it wasn’t just a styling choice, it was an emotional release, a visual metaphor for being consumed by someone and not knowing what to do with the intensity.
Titles, too, are part of the magic. Amelia often pulls ideas from the shows she’s watching—Sex and the City being a favorite—for phrases that feel punchy and personal. That blend of pop culture and raw emotion gives her music a specific kind of bite: fun on the outside, devastating underneath.
Of all the songs on the new project, she’s most excited for fans to hear “see through.” “It was really impactful for me,” she says. “I just hope people freak out like I did when I wrote it.”
Since breaking out, Moore has kept her sights high. Her ten-year goal? “The Super Bowl,” she says without hesitation. Every show she plays, she envisions it as her Super Bowl moment—bringing the same intensity, precision, and emotion, whether it's a packed venue or a studio taping.
With he’s still just not that into you on the way, Amelia Moore isn’t just leveling up—she’s reintroducing herself on her own terms. This is what it sounds like when someone knows exactly who they are, and where they’re going.
