Dayglow is a group of friends brought together by their shared passion for music. Born into musically inclined families, each member of the band was raised from birth on great music that influenced them at an early age. The band met while in Benjamin N. Cardozo High School in Bayside, Queens. Then the Electrik Shoes, They began playing and writing songs in their garage in 2001 when most of them were only sixteen.
In the summer of 2002, the band heard that Breakdown Records, a local record store, had just completed the construction of a recording studio in their basement. They made a cassette recording of a rehearsal and submitted it to the owner. He liked it so much that he hired them all to work in the store and gave them complete use of the studio.
The band spent the next two years working in the record store and listening to all of the music at their disposal. The members of the band also studied music in college, whether it be theory, business, or engineering. At night, they would practice and continue to write in the studio.
Good friend Nick Rowe (guitarist of Bloodsimple, Warner Brothers) co-produced and engineered over a dozen tracks for the band in the summer of 2003. Nick has spent time recording with legendary producers GGGarth Richardson (Rage Against The Machine) and Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd's The Wall).
After over a year long break, the band got back together in the summer of 2005 and changed their name to Dayglow. In less than a year, they played over 40 shows in the tri-state area at venues such as CBGB's, Knitting Factory, Rothko, Sin'e, Pianos, and Arlene's Grocery. They have also played New York City events like M.E.A.N.Y. Fest, Vicious NYC, and Death Disco. Dayglow has opened for acts like Life of Agony's Keith Caputo (Epic Records), Weezer's Mikey Welsh (Geffen Records), and Bettie Serveert (Matador Records). The band acquired drummer Viveca Butler in the summer of 2006, and were instilled with a new bolt of energy onstage.
Dayglow’s songs have received praise from the music industry, and the band has achieved much success without the help of a label. The band landed a deal with Imaginary Friends Music Partners, an L.A.-based firm that places songs in film and television, with credits that include "Dawson's Creek," "Degrassi: The Next Generation," "Pimp My Ride," and many others. Their song “To Get Her Coin” was featured on Modirn Records Sampler Volume 3, a compilation of up and coming artists put together by NYC based indie label Modirn Records. Also, their song “Madman” was a semi-finalist in the 2005 UK Songwriting Contest. Most recently, "To Get Her Coin" appeared on the E! series, Living Lohan.
Members of the band attended a seminar given by Alanis Morrissette in the spring of 2005. The moderator of this event was DJ Jonathan Clarke from Q104.3 Classic Rock in New York. He was given a copy of the band's EP, and just a few weeks later featured the song "Congratulations" on his show "Out of the Box.” Other songs from their self titled EP have been played on a number of internet and college radio stations, including ENGAGE, Radio Crystal Blue, Netwavz, Fearless, WXCI Connecticut State University, iRadio LaGuardia College, and many others.
Based around solid songwriting, Dayglow are an interesting combination of all of their influences, and have an equal appreciation for underground and mainstream music of all genres. Their self taught musicianship, unique instrumentation, and a variety of lyrical and vocal styles, give each song a different sound.
Out of all of todays young bands crossing my desk, Dayglows carefully crafted songs shine bright and stand high above the rest." Michael Parrish, VP Operations FMQB
"Barely a few years old when modern synth pop bands like The Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen, and Joy Division were storming the charts, these 4 New York based girls have captured that influence perfectly while creating their own strong identity. A sassy look, coupled with well rehearsed songs, leads to a very attractive live show. I look forward to seeing how things evolve as shows get bigger and the word starts to spread." Mark Landgraf, President and Founder, Modirn Records
"When you hear about an all-female rock band, you may smirk and assume a cleverly-packaged feat of A&R marketing. But the Bayside, Queens natives in Dayglow play genuine and rather classic rock." NY Press
"Not since the heyday of The Bangles and Belly has there
been a more impressive female presence on American
Power pop than the music of Queens' Dayglow." Ron Hart, Billboard.com
"Dayglow has a far reaching appeal that spans from the 13 year old teenybopper to the 30 year old classic rocker, and that's money to me!" Aaron Farash, Interboro Rock Tribune
“There were plenty of Blondie guitar flourishes coming out of the speakers during Dayglow's crisp, 35-minute set, which showcased bright vocals, some lovely harmonies, effervescent keyboards, and some kooky-hooky tempo shifts. Bands as diverse as The Beatles and Radiohead were lurking inside much of the tunecraft.” Larry Belmont, Skylighters.org
