From the Daytrotter description:
When you listen to Daughter, you don’t hear smiles. You hear sullenness and the bleak remains. Oh, it’s about as gorgeous as it gets, but it devastates you. It makes you need a hug and it makes you want to deliver a hug – or however many it might take to lighten the mood some, to get everyone back on the sunny side. It’s nice to walk along those shores for a while though and to soak in all that Tonra has in her, those swarms of sadness that must hurt quite a lot. They must poke and reiterate. They must keep lapping up against her heart, splashing and breaking. It might be soothing to sleep to or perhaps it’s so loud that such an activity isn’t possible. Along with her boyfriend and guitarist, Igor Haefeli, Tonra has made a sound that reminds us of all the dead ends that we run into and can find no other ways around. We fall down to our knees and just let it out.
We couldn’t of said it any better and one of the sole reasons we’re eagerly awaiting a full length from the lovely cafe favorite Elena Tonra aka Daughter. Enjoy her daytrotter session version of ‘In The Shallows’ below. Simplicity at its very best.
