DALEY ONE OFF LONDON SHOW @ LONDON ISLINGTON ASSEMBLY HALL


DALEY ONE OFF LONDON SHOW @ LONDON ISLINGTON ASSEMBLY HALL 

TUES 9TH DECEMBER




After touring with the likes of Miguel, Emeli  Sande, Gorillaz and label mate Jessie  J, Daley  has gone on  to sell  out  his  own tours all over the  UK, Europe and the  USA,  expanding his  audience and picking up  fans from the  likes of, Maxwell and Jill Scott, to Will.i.am and Pharrell Williams along the  way. DALEY is back for a one off show at London Islington Assembly Hall on the 9th December.

Growing up in Manchester, England, with little around to stimulate or opportune his talent, Daley spent time taking in the greats of yesterday and today, nurtured by US and UK sounds growing up. Influenced by the likes of Prince, D’Angelo and Soul II Soul to the sparse experimental sonics of Sade, Radiohead and Imogen Heap, Daley amalgamated a unique sound all his own. 

 At 24, the UK singer- songwriter is well  on  his  way  to redefining the  way  heartfelt music and songwriting looks, sounds and feels.

“I want my music to feel of its time” the young artist divulges  “I sometimes refer to it as ‘future-throwback-soul’… everything I write is very much rooted in a feeling, the kind you get from throwback R&B and Soul that I grew up around… then sonically I try to take that and bring it a into the  future.”

He first perked mainstream ears writing the Gorillaz 2010 chart hit,  ‘Doncamatic’ after a mutual friend introduced Gorillaz creator Damon Albarn to his music at one of his early London shows. Radio plays on BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra  plus guest spots writing, featuring and touring with  UK artists including Wretch 32, Emeli  Sande and Jessie J -  all this eventually paved way for Daley’s first  solo project, the  independently released ‘Those Who Wait’ mixtape. 

His first official release the  ‘Alone Together ’ EP came shortly after, furthering his rise with first Stateside single, new-classic R&B jam  ‘Alone Together ’ featuring Grammy nominated Marsha Ambrosius which became a Top 5 Urban radio hit. The US debut EP also garnered Daley  ‘Best  Newcomer ’ nominations from BET, Centric, SoulTrain  Awards and the  MOBOs,  made him  one of BBC 1Xtra’s most shared acts to date, and has racked up  over 16 million YouTube/VEVO views with  live performances and music videos, including Jessie J assisted duet, ‘Remember Me’.

Daley's latest release ‘Days  & Nights’ out now on Republic Records.
