DAUGHTER IN CONCERT:
London-based indie folksters Daughter are quickly making headlines with their beautifully ambient music and cool hipster vibe. The group's low-key tunes tug on fans’ heartstrings as singer Elena Tonra leads with her strikingly emotive voice backed by a simple guitar strum and lovely atmospherics. On their highly anticipated UK and European tour, the humble performers will play hits such as “Youth” and “Landfill” and surely win over countless new fans.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Starting as a solo project by songstress Elena Tonra, Daughter truly took shape in 2010 when Tonra caught the attention of guitarist Igor Haefeli who was captivated by her solo work and asked to join the band. They added drummer Remi Aguilella for the recording of their EPs The Wild Youth and His Young Heart, and they've been playing as a trio ever since. With the success of their recorded music came a number of live gigs – they’ve appeared at festivals like Austin's SXSW and spent time touring around the world alongside The National and Ben Howard. They broke out with 2013's If You Leave, a sparkling debut that received rave reviews from a number of critics and peaked at No. 4 on the UK Indie chart. Hot off the heels of Coachella 2014, Daughter will have fans in awe as they hit the road for their UK and European tour.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"At one point in the show I just remember tuning around to my friend and we both had our jaws on the floor. The music was soul-shatteringly good...Daughter was adorable and amazing as usual!"
"True talent. The band sounds just as good live, if not better, than their album. They are literally the most humble performers, which just makes their sound more worthwhile... so so great."
"Daughter sounds even better live! They presented raw talent and their live show was definitely worth it!"
It was a very intimate show....sounded great...the performances were amazing...the crowd was calm and quiet and didn't interfere with the performance. Great vibe...Lighting was good and plenty of seating available. A wonderful experience.
Daughter was amazing live. A very nice, cozy and chill show, amazingly well executed!
Probably one of my favorite concerts. The venue was clean and organized. The seating was great because you could still see the stage, despite the people standing. The sound and lights were perfect. A great concert all around.
see them. get off the computer and see them. experience concerts in real life not like this- reading /reviews/.
Amazing show! Great venue! Would see them again anytime!
We really enjoyed this show. This was our first time attending The Variety Playhouse, and it was right up our alley. It was also our own daughter's first concert....I told her she is now spoiled. The performances were fantastic by both groups, with endearing interaction with the audience.
Daughter was absolutely magical. I've been a fan for a while and seeing them in person was indescribable. The venue size was just right, too. it was the perfect setting and it couldn't have been more perfect. I was general admission and was so close to the stage I could touch them.
I thought the opener was better than Daughter. They did put on a very good show, but the crowd was a real bummer, and that really rendered the quality of my overall experience. Too many "hipsters." I took my boyfriend because he is a fan of the band, and as a first time listener, I felt like Daughter kinda has a soft rock/indie vibe to them. I looked back at everyone and they were just standing there with emotionless faces. The girl next to me even asked me to stop moving so much. And they [the crowd] just seemed rude overall. Even being in the front row I was unable to snag a set list or guitar picks because the guy next to me hoarded it all. Elena should have been placed a little more center stage and her pianist was hardly visible even from the front row. Lighting was poor, and both sets had difficulties with the equipment: I'm surprised it didn't alter the sound too much. I wish the band would have had a little more banter in between songs. I was thoroughly disappointed when I was asked to put my camera away by a staff member. (I wasn't taking video or using flash...just photography.) And finding parking for a decent price was a pain in the butt. The lead singer said they would visit with fans for pictures and signing after the show, but the event staff kicked us out before they could even do so.
Daughter sounded even better live than they do on the album. I didn't know they could get loud and rock out, but they made an ethereal sound even more beautiful.
Daughter played an amazing set as did their opening band that i had no clue would be so good. good venue. great music.
I love Daughter. Unfortunately not many of my friends know about her so I ended up going alone driving from Cinci to Columbus. But it was 100 percent worth it, daughter rocked, and so did her opener Wilsen, I totally recommend them too.
I really like Daughter's music. As a relatively new band I wasn't sure how their performance would be, but the price was definitely worth a chance. The Sinclair was a great venue, and the opener had good stage presence, but Daughter had some minor technical difficulty which was more obvious due to their nerves. Elena was so softspoken and apologetic yet her voice carried beautifully when she sang. This band is good though wasn't the best concert I've been to. Ireally enjoyed it and hope the band gains more confidence and become better showman in the future.
Daughter was absolutely phenomenal. They are one of those bands that sounds the same live as they do on their albums. Wilsen, their opener, was fantastic too. Very similar sound.
Second time seeing Daughter live. No regrets. <3 Elena is adorable and has a hauntingly beautiful voice and the sound at the Sinclair was just perfect. 10/10 would see a third time.
One of the most beautiful and genuinely intimate concerts I have been to.
omg so good, i didn't know that many of her songs but it was so good. I loved it so much omg
the band was great, very personable with the crowd. they were as good in person as on the albums and eps.
One of the best concerts. Daughter is an amazing band who are talented and friendly. I would definitely see them again!
I can't even begin to describe how wonderful Daughter was.. Elena has the voice of heaven..and their unique sound was almost too perfect live. If you love their music or curious about them...you must go to their concert...you will not regret it...I'm still recovering from an overload of awesome.
There are no words to describe how amazing they are.
