Amelia Rahayu Murray (born 19 January 1993) is a New Zealand singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. She is best known for her musical project Fazerdaze.

Murray first gained acclaim in 2014 for Fazerdaze's self-titled debut EP. She gained further recognition in 2017 after releasing her debut album, Morningside. Its single, "Lucky Girl", became a viral hit. Following a period of burnout and personal challenges, she took a break from the music industry for several years and returned in late 2022 with Fazerdaze's second EP, Break!. Her second album, Soft Power was released on 15 November 2024 and received critical acclaim.

Fazerdaze's music is best known for its intimate, introspective lyrics and dreamy echo-laden production. Some of the genres associated with the project are dream pop, shoegaze and alternative rock.
