Daisy Anabelle’s introspective pop-infused melodic songs, influenced by singer-songwriters Carole King, Regina Spektor, and Ingrid Michaelson, have always been intended both for personal expression and to connect with her listeners. “Daisy used to only fall asleep and stay asleep to Leonard Cohen’s ‘Suzanne’ as a baby. Our friend who was babysitting her one time thought we were kidding, but even he had to keep the song on loop for the whole night!” Her mother, a visual artist and animation professor, attributes her talent and love of music to her father, a music professor and lead singer of the early 1980’s band, Andy and the Rattlesnakes. Since joining the open mic scene in New York City last fall, she’s been writing and playing standing room only sets at the cozy Village, Lower East Side, and Brooklyn music haunts: The Bowery Electric, The Path Café, Caffé Vivaldi, Pianos, Rockwood Music Hall and The Living Room.
