Thu 4 Feb; Vega; 300kr, billetnet.dk

Daughter’s combination of hard-hitting lyrics, heavy bass notes and mysteriously beautiful guitar riffs has never failed to capture the attention of listeners.

The hauntingly beautiful voice of Elena Tonra and the complementary tones of bandmates Igor and Remi create a melancholy atmosphere that will have you missing people you haven’t even met.

Flagship song ‘Youth’ has a slow rhythmic build-up before crashing down like most relationships tend to do these days.

If that sounds like an emotional atmosphere worth sampling, this one is for you. (JM)
