Barcelona (In The Rear View)

Jack & Daisy

Bay Street Records

WE SAY

Rising British indie-folk duo Jack & Daisy deliver a tender, acoustic gem in the title track to their debut EP 'Barcelona (In The Rear View)'. Discovered and produced by Dave Stewart (Eurythmics), who also co-wrote this track and 'Life Go Easier On Me', the Spain-based pair have spent the past year building a devoted fanbase with their intimate songwriting and heartfelt harmonies. Built on stripped-back acoustics and close-knit harmonies, the track is a timeless and affecting ode to change. Premiered earlier this week on Americana UK, the track arrives today alongside the full EP release. With its delicate sound and universal themes, it’s well-suited for mellow/acoustic editorial playlists and worthy of airplay on BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music. With over 75k YouTube subscribers and 9m+ views (including 2m for their cover of Chris Isaak’s 'Wicked Game'), Jack & Daisy have already earned early support from Chris Kimsey, Mark Knopfler, and regional radio. One for fans of Simon & Garfunkel, First Aid Kit, and Angus & Julia Stone — this is a debut that quietly commands attention.
