Daughter

DAUGHTER IN CONCERT:London-based indie folksters Daughter are quickly making headlines with their beautifully ambient music and cool hipster vibe. The group's low-key tunes tug on fans’ heartstrings as singer Elena Tonra leads with her strikingly emotive voice backed by a simple guitar strum and lovely atmospherics. On their highly anticipated UK and European tour, the humble performers will play hits such as “Youth” and “Landfill” and surely win over countless new fans.BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:Starting as a solo project by songstress Elena Tonra, Daughter truly took shape in 2010 when Tonra caught the attention of guitarist Igor Haefeli who was captivated by her solo work and asked to join the band.

I really like Daughter's music. As a relatively new band I wasn't sure how their performance would be, but the price was definitely worth a chance. The Sinclair was a great venue, and the opener had good stage presence, but Daughter had some minor technical difficulty which was more obvious due to their nerves. Elena was so softspoken and apologetic yet her voice carried beautifully when she sang. This band is good though wasn't the best concert I've been to. Ireally enjoyed it and hope the band gains more confidence and become better showman in the future.

I can't even begin to describe how wonderful Daughter was.. Elena has the voice of heaven..and their unique sound was almost too perfect live. If you love their music or curious about them...you must go to their concert...you will not regret it...I'm still recovering from an overload of awesome.

It was a very intimate show....sounded great...the performances were amazing...the crowd was calm and quiet and didn't interfere with the performance. Great vibe...Lighting was good and plenty of seating available. A wonderful experience.

Probably one of my favorite concerts. The venue was clean and organized. The seating was great because you could still see the stage, despite the people standing. The sound and lights were perfect. A great concert all around.

We really enjoyed this show. This was our first time attending The Variety Playhouse, and it was right up our alley. It was also our own daughter's first concert....I told her she is now spoiled. The performances were fantastic by both groups, with endearing interaction with the audience.

Daughter was absolutely magical. I've been a fan for a while and seeing them in person was indescribable. The venue size was just right, too. it was the perfect setting and it couldn't have been more perfect. I was general admission and was so close to the stage I could touch them.

I thought the opener was better than Daughter. They did put on a very good show, but the crowd was a real bummer, and that really rendered the quality of my overall experience. Too many "hipsters." I took my boyfriend because he is a fan of the band, and as a first time listener, I felt like Daughter kinda has a soft rock/indie vibe to them. I looked back at everyone and they were just standing there with emotionless faces. The girl next to me even asked me to stop moving so much. And they [the crowd] just seemed rude overall. Even being in the front row I was unable to snag a set list or guitar picks because the guy next to me hoarded it all. Elena should have been placed a little more center stage and her pianist was hardly visible even from the front row. Lighting was poor, and both sets had difficulties with the equipment: I'm surprised it didn't alter the sound too much. I wish the band would have had a little more banter in between songs. I was thoroughly disappointed when I was asked to put my camera away by a staff member. (I wasn't taking video or using flash...just photography.) And finding parking for a decent price was a pain in the butt. The lead singer said they would visit with fans for pictures and signing after the show, but the event staff kicked us out before they could even do so.

Daughter sounded even better live than they do on the album. I didn't know they could get loud and rock out, but they made an ethereal sound even more beautiful.

I love Daughter. Unfortunately not many of my friends know about her so I ended up going alone driving from Cinci to Columbus. But it was 100 percent worth it, daughter rocked, and so did her opener Wilsen, I totally recommend them too.

Daughter was absolutely phenomenal. They are one of those bands that sounds the same live as they do on their albums. Wilsen, their opener, was fantastic too. Very similar sound.

Second time seeing Daughter live. No regrets. <3 Elena is adorable and has a hauntingly beautiful voice and the sound at the Sinclair was just perfect. 10/10 would see a third time.

I loved this show! Not only was Daughter hauntingly perfect but the opening act (Alexandra Savior) almost matched the level of quality. Such a beautiful sound to echo off the walls, such a nice crowd, I can't wait until the next time Daughter comes around.

Daughter had a great performance as usual but warm feelings went away after all the inconveniences related to the venue (Wiltern Theater). Concert was announced to start at 8 PM but did not start until 9 PM with a band that I have never heard of. Daughter did not come to stage until 10:10 PM after more than 21/2 h standing up waiting.

I'm so excited I finally got to see Daughter play live! They were as good or better sounding live and I enjoyed seeing them play in a smaller venue at the Neptune because it felt like a more intimate setting. The only thing I'd change would be their light show. They had three bright white lights that were a bit intense and strobey for me at times. I was in the upper deck seating so maybe the lights weren't as intense for the ground floor. But all in all id definitely recommend going to see them play and I'll be going to see them again whenever they're back in Seattle.

Daughter isn't a well known band but their performance was better than a bigger group in my opinion!! The lights and effects went so well with the music and you can tell the crowd was enjoying the show.

Before walking to the show, my friend and I were talking about how difficult it must be to put as much emotion and sincerity into such deep songs night after night on tour, and were worried that Daughter would be too drained from the same songs to put on a good show. Fortunately, that couldn't be farther from the truth. Every song, they poured all of the emotion and talent you hear on the record. Between songs, they kept talking about how much they appreciated everyone being there and how nice it was to be touring. She would smile every time she could hear the crowd singing along and just seemed so happy and appreciative. They performed two encore songs with just as much energy as their original set to thunderous applause. The lighting and smoke was SPOT on; a couple times I was expecting her to ascend bodily into the heavens as she sang. I can't wait until they come back anywhere close to Columbus.

I've been to a lot of concerts over the past couple of years and this one had to be my favorite. They're performance was awesome. Daughter sounded better live...so would definitely recommend to a friend. Only complaint was the location was kind of annoying because the standing/seating situation. Other than that....unforgettable night.

Spellbinding , cant wait till they ever have a Blu-ray of a live show, I would pay 30 bucks, no problem. I haven't taken "not to disappear" out of my player since I got it three weeks ago, but Im a fan for three years now and have seen all three bay area shows.

Their performance was amazing but I wished they chose a different venue--one where you could stand and move to the music. I know Daughter doesn't play your stereotypical dancing music but I certainly wanted to move to music and the setup for Somerville Theatre doesn't really allow you to do that without bothering other people. Their performances are always amazing and so powerful. I love Daughter.

Great Opening Act (Bear's End)...went a little long but I was probably just antsy to see Daughter. :-). They were brilliant: simple, understated but powerful performance. Good acoustics though Elena "kissed the mic", at times, so hard to make out words. I wish they would have performed "Medicine"...that was disappointing. Had a wonderful time for a great price - wow!

I have never been to a concert and cried tears of happiness. Terminal 5 was the perfect venue for a concert like this. I will see Daughter over and over again, as long as they're touring. When they left the stage to end the concert, the audience applauded and screamed for 20 minutes... I have never experienced anything like that. So beautiful and so perfect. I recommend a Daughter concert to anyone.

At one point in the show i just remember tuning around to my friend and we both had our jaws on the floor. The music was soul shatteringly good. Bear's Den is made up of the greatest 3 men ever with the sickest beards and Daughter was adorable and amazing as usual.

Beautiful set (lights, sound, location, everything!) The opening band very much complimented Daughter's style of music, plus their beards were kickass! BUT: They didn't come out until nearly 10pm and made the audience wait over an hour between the opening act and the main act.

Elena was very nervous, it was so cute, but they did an amazing job!! The whole show was so intimate and relaxed and they were so humble to be playing in NYC. They did an encore for their cover of Daft Punk's Get Lucky :) Bear's Den did a great job opening!

Even though I am not the biggest fan of Daughter I went because of my GF. She said it was amazing and everything was just perfect. Lighting was incredible and the show was just overall very deep. The only downfall that I personally had was she would whisper a lot and it made her hard to understand when she was trying to talk to the crowd. Other than that it was amazing.

True talent. The band sounds just as good live, if not better, than their album. They are literally the most humble performers, which just makes their sound more worthwhile. You float in their music. So so great.
