A new indie pop obsession is blooming—and its name is Daisy the Great. Well, “new” might be a bit misleading. The Brooklyn-based band has been quietly crafting its sound for nearly a decade, but with each release, it edges closer to the spotlight it has more than earned. Fronted by co-founders Kelley Dugan and Mina Walker, and rounded out by the talented Briana Archer, Matt Lau, Bernardo Ochoa, and Matti Dunietz, Daisy the Great is the kind of band that doesn’t just play music—they summon a mood, a memory, a moment. Their sound is warm, whip-smart, and wildly nostalgic, echoing the golden age of early 2000s indie pop while carving out something undeniably their own.

With dreamy harmonies, emotionally sharp lyrics, and lush instrumentation, they strike a rare balance: intimate yet anthemic. It’s the kind of music that feels like it was written just for you, but still hits hard in a packed room of strangers. Their aesthetic leans whimsical without losing weight, melancholic without being mopey—a sonic love letter to growing up, messing up, and finding beauty in between.

Whether you’re discovering them for the first time or wondering how they’ve been flying under the radar for so long, one thing is clear: Daisy the Great is no longer indie’s best-kept secret—they’re your next favourite band.
