FOR FANS OF: Glass Animals, DREAMERS, grandson
Hailing from Vancouver, Canada, daysormay are a trio of friends who from sixth grade decided to dedicate themselves fully to making music, and nine years later, after an EP release and a handful of singles, they've gained a following and just dropped a new single - "Ego." It's a catchy alt rock/pop tune that reminds me directly of singer/songwriter grandson's music, and it's a song that's based around Sigmund Freud’s concepts of the id, ego, and superego, with each verse representing those individually. It has that combination of reality & fun that makes it such a good song, and it's catchy - perfect for the summer.
daysormay are singer Adian Andrews and twin brothers Carson & Nolan Bassett on the rhythm section. Their band name is a English phonetic of the French "désormais," meaning "from now on." "Ego" is full of charming guitars and synths, upbeat drums, and witty lyrics that make you question yourself and who you are. It's a funky song with a deeper meaning, making it a track you'd want on repeat. I really love this song because it's the perfect mix of intellectualism and fantastic instrumentals. There's also a music video that goes to this track, with a blue & white color palette, and it reflects the story of "Ego." It was shot in a DIY way, with just a three person crew across Vancouver, then edited by singer of daysormay, Adian Andrews.
I love daysormay's music so much. "Ego" is the first song I've heard by them, but by also listening to the rest of their discography, I know that they're a band I'm amazed with. They're clearly very skilled, the hard work and dedication they've put into becoming musicians is obviously shown in their tracks. Whatever they release next, I'm definitely going to be here for.
