Daisy Chapman - She Took Flight (2023) [Official Digital Download 24/48]

Singer, songwriter, pianist and string arranger Daisy Chapman is a well-travelled musician who draws her influences from both anti-folk and classical music. It is difficult to describe Daisy Chapman's own style. A fictional meeting of Neil Hannon with Regina Spektor might be the first attempt at a description. Live, each song holds a dark story of love, lust and loss, told in a multi-faceted way through Daisy Chapman's voice and Sue Lord on violin.

Daisy Chapman narrates in her usual expert manner, with a rich and full sound. Her music is as warm as, detailed, punchy and cinematic. String section, percussion and double bass support the piano and the voice of Daisy Chapman in telling elaborate stories. Stories that, with plenty of humour, focus on life as a woman in the 2020s, stories about home and a family life as an artist.

Daisy Chapman has performed as part of Crippled Black Phoenix alongside members of Portishead and Hawkwind and is also lead singer of new prog - rock band Venus Principle. As a backing vocalist, she has proven her abilities many times over for well-known artists

With worldwide tours and performances in clubs, concert halls and at international festivals such as the Migration Festival in Taiwan or Glastonbury 2022, Daisy Chapman has been proving her skills again and again all over the world for many years. Her own voice, style and expression are her trademark. With "She Took Flight", Daisy Chapman once again underlines her quality as a songwriter and arranger.
