Harmless Melodies

The EP’s sound blends soulful, introspective vocals with lo-fi production and influences drawn from jazz, blues, and classic soul, creating moody, evocative tracks that feel both timeless and contemporary. Its seven tracks — including the standout “Your Hand Holding Mine” — feature reflective lyrics about love, heartbreak and everyday life, set against laid- back guitar, organ-tinged riffs, and thoughtful vocal delivery that belies his youth.

Critically, Harmless Melodies was praised as a breakout debut; reviewers highlighted his mature voice and unique style, with some outlets rating it highly (e.g., 9/10) and noting that it felt like a cohesive musical journey rather than just a collection of songs. Fans and reviewers alike found it soulful, introspective and refreshingly authentic, especially impressive from a teenager still developing his craft.

The EP helped firmly establish Yellow Days as a distinctive voice in indie and alternative soul, setting the stage for his later releases and growing reputation throughout the late 2010s
