We Got Blogged!
Marylin over at A Future in Noise decided to put up a feature about us this morning on her blog. Go check it out! We’ll be back to more behind the scenes blogging in a bit…
Evolution of a Song :: The Tide
So, having done the first two songs of our record in order, I wanted to jump around a bit and make some commentary about the last song on the record, called The Tide. In the past, I’ve been breaking up the technical evolution and the emotional, artistic commentary, but in this case, I find it hard [...]
Evolution of a Song :: The Tempest
This is the story of the one that almost got away, but then turned out to be one of the biggest catches of the day. You can blame the bass for this one. (Get it? Bass Guitar? Bass fishing? Huh? Funny, right? No? Moving on.) So, I play [...]
Thoughts on Songwriting :: Signal Chain
In the beginning is a spark, it is an impulse in the head… So begins our record. …digital to analogue, conversion on the breath.. it travels on a wave the length of which cannot be seen but anyone can hear it, if anyone is near.. cause it goes….alllllllllll the waaaaaay…..

The Arduous Life of a Model
I’ve taken to calling “What it Is” the art project, because it had no commercial purpose when we were creating it. We had always meant to do a record with just the two of us, we had a few songs written, and we just took the plunge, learning as we went. We didn’t [...]
The Dailies @ The House of Blues Foundation Room
We stumbled into a cool gig, coming up fast on the 9th of October. We’re doing an acoustic set starting at 8:50pm at the House of Blues Foundation Room. We’d love to see you there. The promoter is sending us tickets, so if you’re interested, email us at thedailiesmusic@gmail.com. We’re stoked, but a [...]
