"Daisy O’Connor is a former social worker and Austin singer-songwriter who’s devoted her time to Hill Country flood relief, Austin domestic violence shelter SafePlace, and a benefit compilation for Standing Rock. That empathetic streak runs through her debut album, Lightchasers. The record eases into gear with the title track, an unhurried folk-pop hybrid built on a bed of synths and O’Connor’s light-chasing harmonies. The natural imagery is a good fit–this is patient, quietly-built music. 

“Lightchasers” appears on Lightchasers, out February 3. Daisy O’Connor plays an album release show at the Cactus Cafe on February 3."

Daisy had a blast chatting with KUTX DJ Elizabeth McQueen on her new podcast "This Song." (not to mention hanging with Shawnee Kilgore & Joss Whedon in studio- no big deal.)  Listen here

"Daisy's EP shows extraordinary promise, her fresh voice and quirky narrative sensibility is reminiscent of Kacey Musgraves at her best but still always her own. A forceful combination of honesty and artistry."
-Texas Music Magazine


"I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with rising star singer-songwriter, Daisy O’Connor for a cup of coffee and what turned out to be one of the more enlightening and inspiring Ovrld interviews I’ve ever done."

“Daisy’s soft, whisper of a voice entices you into her world of lyrically crafted stories that will keep you fixed on every word.  She is definitely one to watch.”
-Nancy Coplin, Public Space Music


"It's a shame Bellingham native Daisy moved to Austin a few years back because holy cow, her music is beautiful. Daisy's growth as a musician and songwriter is simply stunning."
-What's Up Magazine 

 
"I'm still listening to your CD and am frankly blown away. The writing, production, and your delivery. AMAZING. You actually interrupted my night ... again. I had to shut everything down and just listen to you. This is so original."
