Now performing with a two piece backing band, Daisy Kelly-Granger has been singing all her life. Blessed with a natural stage confidence, aged four she made all the parents at nursery cry after delivering a heart wrenching solo of ‘Away In A Manger’. She got very upset because she thought she’d done something awful.
She joined a gospel choir as a young teenager and fell in love with such passionate and soulful delivery. You might say she let her hair down a little… The choirmaster saw her potential and one day taught her her first jazz piece, ‘Nancy’ by Frank Sinatra.
Her thirst for jazz and blues became insatiable and she wrote, sang, jammed and scatted all the way around the festival circuit through her mid teens. During that time she met Jamie Woon and Dannii of Onetaste and was given her first paid gig at The Bedford, Balham.
Maybe she didn’t show it, but she felt like she was going to explode with joy! Wow, one could make a living…. making music?
Her relationship with Onetaste only bettered over the years and she has spent the last three summers on the festival tour with the Onetaste collective and Chai Wallahs with the likes of Kate Tempest, Portico Quartet, Speakers Corner Quartet and David J to name but a few.
And so there she goes. Singing is her soul purpose and Daisy is currently recording and working on writing new material with her band members Luke Eastop on bass and Ian Tripp on drums. A keen lover of life, she carries with her an immense amount of drive and positivity that she shares with everyone she meets, and it can be seen so clearly in her passionate, soulful delivery of her heartfelt music.

LEARN THE FACTS, Read the UN Report on War Crimes in Gaza
"The report concludes that the Israeli military
operation was directed at the people of Gaza as a whole, in furtherance of an
overall and continuing policy aimed at punishing the Gaza population, and in a
deliberate policy of disproportionate force aimed at the civilian population.
The destruction of food supply installations, water sanitation systems,
concrete factories and residential houses was the result of a deliberate and
systematic policy which has made the daily process of living, and dignified living,
more difficult for the civilian population."
