Daughter

As Daughter prepares to release their first North American EP, the trio must be realizing how little work turning heads across the pond actually requires. With a dreamy folk sound, the band falls somewhere between the introspective earnestness of the Avett Brothers and the urgent earnestness of Mumford & Sons, with some tinges of The xx’s ethereal moodiness thrown in for good measure. In the end, they’re a wholly refreshing entity with two sold-out Bowery Ballroom shows to prove it.
