Apr 13 : "Fake Flowers" - Daisychain (Chicago)




On a recent trip to Ortlieb's I saw Chicago band "Daisychain". I hadn't heard them before; it was my first time seeing them. They are, as their Bandcamp page describes, "a 4-piece, female-fronted blues/psych rock band based out of Chicago".

I was impressed by the guitar work at the show. And, after listening to their online samples, the best example of what I liked is in their song "Fake Flowers", which is the fifth track on their 2020 album "Daisychain EP". While I got the impression of the band members' playing as individual parts during the show, I feel it all comes together as a unified whole in the recorded versions. I'm in love with the instrumentals in this:






Daisychain doesn't appear to have any plans to come back East in the near future, but here is the click to their Facebook page where you can keep up-to-date with what they're doing. Daisychain on Facebook (CLICK HERE). (Pic above is from the band's Facebook page).
