Album Notes

The Daylights: bio

There is a new band in Los Angeles. Unafraid and optimistic, The Daylights are a three-piece demanding attention, whether they mean to or not. Ran Jackson (guitars/piano) and his brother Ricky Jackson (bass/guitars) split time at the mics, while Adam Farley sits content to beat the paint off his drum kit. After just a year in LA, the band is packing out clubs and drawing loyal supporters nationwide. With the release of their first offering, The Shift and Blur EP, The Daylights set a daring tone, being just as much inspired by The Beatles and Led Zeppelin as they are by John Steinbeck, Radiohead or even Frederic Chopin, for that matter. It is music that is vast and cinematic in nature, inevitably becoming a sort of soundtrack to life. The Daylights' trademark: giant melodies that sink in for days. The band recently signed with Daylight/Epic Records and are currently in preparation to record their first full length LP. Expect a national release date sometime in early summer '07.

Appeared at:
New York - Mercury Lounge, Arlene's Grocer
L.A. - The Viper Room, The Troubadour, The Roxy, The Whisky, & Café Largo
Nashville - Exit/In, 12th & Porter, Dancin' in the District, 3rd & Lindsley
Austin - SouthXSouthwest

Not exactly my cuppa--nonetheless, these lads have definitely got "IT": well-crafted tunes, sparse, yet complete, and the players are extremely tight--a case of the Whole being greater than the total sum of it's parts. These guys deserve the big league & I hope they make it.

Shift and Blur

I first saw this group open for OneRepublic in Columbus, Ohio and was blown away by their haunting melodies. Usually the opening bands are a time to go to the bathroom and get snacks, but this band caught my attention and held it. Their powerful ballads, each building on the momentum from the last had me screaming for them by the end of the performance. The band also has excellent stage presence and knows how to work and audience. After their performance I bought their Limited Edition EP, available only at the shows and was mesmerized on the drive home. The next day I was online buying Shift and Blur and singing along. I also met the guys after their performance and they signed my cd. They were really sweet which only made me love them even more. I recommend any lover of good music pick up this cd and try to catch one of their shows to see them live. I can't wait until they come back to Ohio.

You can hear the echoes of U2 in this album, yet the sounds and songs are still fresh and original. I love this album and I only wish that it included more tracks. I can't wait 'till the next release!
