Daffodils Announce New EP + Release Blissed Out New Single 'How Do You Know?'

14 April 2022 - 0 Comments

Tāmaki Makaurau based indie four-piece Daffodils today share the news of their forthcoming EP Stay The Night set for release on June 17. To coincide with the announce, they also share their new single How Do You Know?

LISTEN TO HOW DO YOU KNOW? HERE

Following last year’s House Across The Street, Daffodils enter the new year with How Do You Know?, complete with their sentimentally vintage sound, they channel the familiar 80’s new wave through an atmosphere that builds on fresh percussion, pop-laced keys and reverberating vocals, highlighting their distinctive brand of music that is equally introspective and reflective.

On the track, the band reveal that “How Do You Know? is about finding substances as a way of coping with the shit that life throws at you, and how easy it is to fall into a cycle of dealing with things by just tapping out of reality. It’s easy to push people away when you’re convinced that you’re capable of solving all your problems on your own, and this song kind of looks at how it feels when you’re stuck in that cycle.”

Daffodils is a band that everyone thinks they discovered first. Since emerging in 2016 after meeting at a 1975 concert, the project of Isaac Keating, Jade Bryham, Louis Graham and Theo Spike Salmon has won hearts and warmed up stages for international artists Foals and Orville Peck, as well as shared festival lineups including Laneway Festival, Nest Fest and Rhythm & Vines with the likes of Rex Orange County, Clairo and Parquet Courts.

Pairing tender and brooding lyricism with youthful instrumentalism, Daffodils continue their trajectory that has garnered support across Radio Hauraki, bNet radio and online tastemakers all the while gaining a loyal fan base both at home and abroad. On their forthcoming second EP Stay The Night, Daffodils explain it “is about things changing, losing people, and learning from the things you do when you’re younger. It’s about my experience with how hard it is to let stuff go, and how hard it is to detach yourself from regrets and painful parts of the past, which often tend to overwhelm all the good things that happen. Each song is kind of a different introspection, about different aspects of growing up.”

In further exciting news, Daffodils will be making their Australian live debut with forthcoming performances along the east coast this April, supporting The Lazy Eyes in Naarm/Melbourne alongside a string of Eora/Sydney appearances.
