About Daisy
'She Took Flight' is Daisy's fourth full length studio album.
Drawing comparisons from Nick Cave and Regina Spektor, Daisy's unique voice soars high over dramatic string arrangements and her own beautifully delivered 'Nymanesque' piano. Since her first solo release in 2006 (signed to SONGS&WHISPERS, Germany), Daisy has proven herself as a talented and shrewd songwriter in demand. Three albums have been recorded by renowned producer Ali Chant in Bristol (PJ Harvey, Gruff Rhys, Yard Act), the most recent was recorded at Studio Nord, Bremen DE and Nine Volt Leap, Wiltshire UK.
In 2012 Daisy teamed up with violinist Sue Lord. The duo have been playing together ever since, bringing a sonic dynamic to her music, the violin almost acting as an additional voice. The 2023 album 'She Took Flight' was arranged and written by Daisy with Red Carousel quartet on strings. Daisy's love of string instruments (as featured heavily in 2009 'The Green Eyed') is now ever more apparent and her skill at scoring has certainly grown over the years.
Daisy has also travelled as pianist/BV with the UK prog band, Crippled Black Phoenix on tours covering every corner of Europe as well as a short trip to China. In 2014 - 2016 she co-created The Songbirds Collective – a female songwriter tour across Europe where she collaborated with Rachelle Garniez (NYC) and Kyrie Kristmanson (Paris) in performing their unique solo music as an evening’s performance in tours across Europe.
As a solo performer, Daisy has appeared at Glastonbury Festival, 2000Trees, Migration Festival (Taiwan), Breminale (Germany) and worldwide tours.
In addition to her solo work, her newest project is prog band 'Venus Principle' where she shares lead vocals with ex CBP singer Daniel Anghede, their debut album was released on Prophecy Records in 2022.
