"Artist To Watch In 2014" - Indie Shuffle
"It's ['Overdose'] glossy, catchy, and full of the kind of thick, radio-ready bass and chirpy, yearning hook that will glue itself to your brain." - Stereogum
"If you like indie music and dancing, you're going to love Little Daylight. The Brooklyn-based alt-pop band sounds like a Chvrches-Charli XCX-St. Lucia sandwich..." - Glamour
Little Daylight is thrilled to share their alt-electronic, debut album, Hello Memory, a week before release as starting today the LP is exclusively streaming on NPR First Listen. PRESS HERE<http://www.npr.org/2014/07/06/326933737/first-listen-little-daylight-hello-memory> to stream. NPR claims, "Little Daylight sounds both breezy and grounded, heady and cerebral, with its feet on the ground even as it soars. The superficial appeal of Hello Memory is immediate and endorphin-driven, but repeat listens reveal sophisticated production and impeccable delivery." Hello Memory drops next Tuesday, July 15th on Capitol Records (pre-order link below).
Full of catchy, can't-get-enough tunes, Hello Memory endlessly proves Little Daylight's ingenuity in blending blissed-out dance music with a heart-on-sleeve yet edgy emotionalism. The album includes stellar track "No One Else But You" featuring Atlas Genius, their stand out - and much darker side to their pop flare - track "Siren Call" that premiered on The FADER, plus lead single "Overdose," which is now in heavy rotation at Sirius XM's Alt Nation. The band also recently made their TV debut performing "Overdose" on the Late Night with Seth Meyers (PRESS HERE<http://www.nbc.com/late-night-with-seth-meyers/video/little-daylight-performance-overdose/2784509> to watch).
Describing themselves as "very much the product of our environment" and hugely inspired by the indie and dance-music scenes in New York City, the trio thrives on connections with their fellow musicmakers and, above all, with each other. "The way we work is very collaborative -- there's no leader, it's a real 'everyone' project," says lead singer Nikki Taylor. And despite having signed to a major label, the band continues to operate according to a D.I.Y. ethic that goes hand-in-hand with that egalitarian approach. "There's a real homemade vibe to our work," notes bassist and keyboardist Eric Zeiler. "We're all producers and writers, and the band is about the three of us in a room together, working stuff out for ourselves. We consider everything we come up with, and everything we come up with is straight from our hearts."
Over the past year the band has toured with Bastille, Charli XCX, plus opened for Danny Brown and The Neighhourhood at Summer Stage in NYC's Central Park. The trio recently made their festival debut appearances at this year's Governor's Ball and Firefly. They've announced more U.S. tour dates throughout this Summer and Fall that includes a special performance in NYC on July 15th for their Record Release Party at Mercury Lounge. Tickets are on sale now - visit http://littledaylight.com/ for more details.
