Event Review:
DAUGHTER
There���s no denying it, folksy trio Daughter are tipped for great
things. Yet we wouldn���t expect any less from a band who mastered
their debut album at Abbey Road.
We had the pleasure of
watching this sinless set
from the pews of St Mary���s
Church, Brighton. Front
woman Elena Tonra cut
a humble figure as she
performed the band���s brand
of dark hymns for broken
hearts. Concerned musos
needn���t have worried about
the unusual location; the
eerie reverb was a perfect
fit for their dark, fragile
sound and Tonra���s haunting
vocals made a fitting
sermon for a respectful
crowd. Performing crowdfavourite
���Youth���
from
their self-released EP, and
previous single ���Smother���,
Elena, Igor and Remi also
gave excited fans a teaser of
what���s to come, performing
���Shallows���
and
the
heartbreaking
���Lifeforms���
from the upcoming 10-track
record.
If You Leave is available
for pre-order now, with a
release date of March 18th.
