“Creative, daring songwriting, a force to be reckoned with” Jennifer Layton, Indie-Music.com

Daria Musk creates soulful, unique, accessible music that resonates long after first listen, breaking out of the expected, shining with originality and spirit. Raised in a musical family tucked away in the woods of Connecticut, with a rebellious heart, an honest innocence, and a passion for playing, Daria developed a distinctive guitar and songwriting style that catches fire on stage and in the studio. Her vocals soar and the lyrics are alive with poetry and inspiration from life, love and the mysteries of the universe. Daria consistently tops the charts on the popular music website Ourstage.com, and is receiving rave reviews before even releasing an album.

Critics at The Improper recently said, “She’s as distinctive a singer and writer as KT Tunstall or Sara Bareilles. The tracks I heard rock with terrific emotion.” And PULP Magazine exclaims, ““If there’s anyone to keep your eye on it’s her.”

Daria has played The Paradise in Boston, countless east coast clubs and festivals, and a showcase at the 2008 SXSW Music Conference. Daria has performed regularly at several notable venues around New York City, including The Bitter End’s Songwriter’s Circle and sold out show at The Mercury Lounge opening for Warner Bros. artist Eric Hutchinson. Daria’s debut full-length album is set for a 2009 release.

“My heart pumps melodies and I express myself through song. I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to play and I cherish every minute of it. I study my heroes and my contemporaries around me in New York City, and in the woods of Connecticut I practice ‘til my fingers fall off, and I try let the song ring true, and just get out of the way of it. It’s my dream to make music that’s honest and real, music that will quell or spark the fire in my heart, music that will speak to you, something that you can put in your back pocket and save for when you’re feeling low or lost, or when you’re ready to drive all night, think of who you love, or just get carried away in the sound.” – Me
