Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by John Richards, host of The Morning Show on KEXP, is "Blue Cowboy" by Daisies, from the 2023 album Great Big Open Sky on K Records.
On their latest LP, Great Big Open Sky, Olympia, WA-based band Daisies flex their musical muscle, diverging from their previous trip-hop/electro-pop sound into more organic, folkier territory. That said, today's Song of the Day is true to the "electronic paisley underground" sound we've heard them explore over the past seven releases. Vocalist Valerie Warren girlishly coos the story of a "blue cowboy on the range," and the accompanying music video spotlights some stellar moves from Mario.
