The Berlin-based Dublin native, known for her versatile style spanning soul, jazz, rhythm & blues and opera, embarks on an album tour of intimate venues across Germany. Accompanied by a duo of jazz musicians, she will perform stripped-back arrangements of tracks from her debut album 'January Skies', which include Jazz FM UK's 'Breakfast Track of the Week' 'My Mama Told Me' and songs from her EP Melodramas. Daly's music also received recognition on BBC RADIO ULSTER, RTE RADIO ONE and JAZZ RADIO BERLIN. She will also present some classics that have influenced her own writing and new, soon-to-be-recorded original material. Drawing inspiration from 60s/70s songwriting and 90s trip-hop, the album, co-written with Australian film composer Michael Edwards ( Game of Thrones Soundtrack), explores themes of purpose, patriarchy, rites of passage, lost faith, fate, missed opportunities, and fantasy versus reality. A seasoned opera performer, she has sung solo at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden and Deutsche Oper Berlin. Other projects include guest vocals on 'These New Puritans' critically acclaimed album 'Inside the Rose.' This tour is part of Zeitgeist Irland 24, an initiative of Culture Ireland and the Embassy of Ireland in Germany.
