"Bloody War" is awesome! Distinctive vocals and powerful, chunky rhythm section drive this along, with solid, retro guitar playing providing a prop. Good stuff.
Daywaker formed October 2004 and have been playing throughout the north west at numerous venues, entertaining the crowds, selling countless CD's and picking up fans everywhere they go. With the quality in all departments from stunning vocals and harmonies, rhythm and melodies played to perfection and quality songs that cut across the age divide and wlth the determination that is needed in this industry, when seen by the right person I'm sure will be a regular band in the charts.

Quality tune guys. Qual sound. Very Coldplay and 80's - ish - a compliment that is. Best sounding tune you've made in my opinion, so you've obviously progressed. Keep up the good work.
and America's Top Model (the women) is not as good as last years, BUT STILL GOOD!!!
Hey dudes, hows it goin? Through the rain, very modern upbeat catchy tunage, totally different and a risky move from older daywalker songs and i can honestly say you've pulled it off!! Keep them coming, i want to hear more like this as i think it would sell well in the 20s year age range!! i would definatly recommend you get this song mastered and sent to various record labels throughout!!! Good luck chaps x Gaz x
Hey! Thanks for adding us! If you wouldn't mind, we'd love it if you could take a couple minutes and check out our tunes. If you're into Dave Matthews Band/Matchbox Twenty kinda music, you'll probably enjoy Facepaint. Leave us a comment and let us know what you think! Thanks a lot!
Hi guys, just wanted to say the new song is great, I have even posted it on my myspace, its different but I think the new sound is brilliant. Look forward to hearing it live xx
Hey up guys, nice one for the add ya beat me to it !!
Good set last night and nice meetin ya, good luck with the rest of the competition. if you need any support get in touch and vica versa. If ya wanna know about any venues in stoke try to help ya out.
Hiya Daywalker, thank you very much for coming out to play at The Mocha Lounge for my party last night. I was disappointed you all had to leave for your other gig, but I fully appreciate your efforts and brilliant set at my event. I hope the rest of your night was as good as we thought you all were. I have many musical friends who I consider talented and you are among my favourites (this is a massive compliment because I am not easy to please). I wish you and your band continued success; I know you will find your way. Superb, mate 0: )x
Just a quick thank you message to all the people who came to the launch of our debut CD at the Liverpool Barfly lastnight. The night was a massive success! and thanks to those of you who bought a copy from the first batch.
Hi Guys Me and DAYWALKER will play the Liverpool Barfly this monday night at 8:00pm, in front of some very important record industry people. These people will be kind of "undercover" so as to not get bothered by bands etc, and we really need as many of you there as possible to support us!
We will play 30 mins supporting an up and coming signed band from London called Assembly Now, and its £6 on the door or £4 with a flyer. Flyers are available from any member of the band or the Barfly itself.
Also, our debut album which has taken a year to record, will be released at long last this Monday, the 2nd of July (same day as the gig) and it will be on the shelves and available from Skeleton Records in Birkenhead at a cost of only £4.99, as well as other selected shops across the Northwest such as HMV and Virgin.
Thanks for the support as we move everything up a pace, and please keep checking our official website for updates on gigs etc (the link to it is on my page)
