Rani Arbo and daisy mayhem
This four-piece string band loves nothing more than choreographing a jubilant mix of traditional, original, and contemporary sounds. With Arbo’s bewitching alto at the helm, stunning vocal harmonies, a 100% recycled drum set, fiddle, guitar, and bass, daisy mayhem “has a grand knack for pumping new blood into old music”- (The Boston Globe) Imagine, for example, a pre-civil war song from the Georgia Sea Islands sung over a New Orleans-style groove. Or, an old Irish fiddle tune with new lyrics, capped with a solo on a South American box drum. You begin to get the idea. Daisy Mayhem celebrates America’s rich musical past and brings it into the present with good humor, impeccable musicianship, powerful songwriting, and a clear love of playing together.
“Explodes with energy and relaxed good humor…a heady and very tasty new musical brew. Drink up!”- Vintage Guitar Review
