Kiwi indie rockers Daily J drop banger ‘Black Lagoon'
Indie rockers Daily J have today released
their latest single ‘Black
Lagoon’.
Spotify / iTunes / Apple Music
A hard and fast banger,
with a highly addictive chorus, chaotic indie-pop-rock beats
and velvet melodies, ‘Black Lagoon’
establishes the ‘band of brothers, and a drummer from
another mother’ as ‘an act to watch’ on the Kiwi music
scene.
The Arctic Monkeys-inspired track reminisces
on the ghostly presence of oldhotelpubs, and perfectly sets
the scene of bars once forgotten to the company of an avid
reveller only to be replaced by the of strangest
patrons.
‘Black Lagoon’ was
co-written with renowned Kiwi producer Joe Faris, who’s
worked with the likes of Ruby Frost,
Ruben Crown and The
Shambles; and who also makes music under the name
Ezra Vine. The song was brought to the life
over a few beers on Daily J’s stomping
grounds of Omaha beach, in the beautiful Matakana.
The talented four-piece (brothers Jayden on vocals/guitar; Jesse on sax/keys; Jonny on bass and their mate Rick on drums) who originally hail from Blenheim, have been on a winning streak since the 2017 release of their debut EP, THE OTHER SIDE, which included the hit single ‘Space’. The song has clocked up more than 160,000 streams on Spotify and is a firm fixture in Daily J’s energetic live set.
And as luck would have it, you can catch Daily J playing live this Saturday, March 16 at the Leigh Sawmill Cafe north of Auckland. Click here for more info.
The indie rockers are giving fans a taste of what’s to come on their second EP, with first single ‘By The Sea’ - which you may recognise as having been the landing song on Air New Zealand flights throughout the month of February - and now the stonking brand new ‘Black Lagoon’.
It lays the foundations for an exciting year ahead for
Daily J and leaves no room for doubt - this
is a band on their way up, with their sights set on great
things.
