Daisy Rickman

“Daisy Rickman is a newer voice on the British folk scene, respectfully toying with all the methods and traditions that came before her, but she’s using that foundation to explore in a unique and wholly captivating manner. Her baritone vocals carry a Nico-esque mystique to them, mixed with a bit of Nick Drake and Laura Marling, while her music encompasses cycling guitar patterns and meditative drones. Rickman casts quite a remarkable spell on these songs that evoke the beauty of the natural world as well as exploring spooky and unique themes harking back to times long past. Howl is the second full length, following 2022’s Donsya a'n Loryow, and with this record she manages to push herself even further into cultural traditions of the Cornish people as well as forays into the possibly occult.” – Kris Handel, Post-Trash
