Biography

Daisy Chute is a folk songstress, multi-instrumentalist and regular on the London music scene.

While her musical roots were born out of her Scottish/American heritage, Daisy has had forays and extensive training in both the jazz and classical genres. Her first album was a critically-acclaimed jazz record released at just age 15. Following encouragement from music legends like Mark Murphy and Sir Barry Gibb, she was enlisted shortly after to be a lead singer in Decca's platinum-selling, Classical Brit-nominated group All Angels with whom she released 3 albums.

Fast forward to 2020, and you'll find Daisy returned to her folk/Americana roots and spending most of her time songwriting, selling out venues and festivals. When she's not recording for her own project, you can hear her vocals and orchestrations on countless soundtracks for films, TV shows, games and for bands like Radiohead and Two Door Cinema Club. Working with top orchestras in London (LMO, LCO, LSO) and at top studios (Abbey Road, Air, Angel), she has contributed to soundtracks as singer, instrumentalist, arranger and copyist including The Sims 4, Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order, The Snowman and the Snowdog, Cleaning Up, David Attenborough's Alive at the Natural History Museum, and BAFTA-nominated The Informer, Athena, Shaun the Sheep and BAFTA-winning Theeb and Phantom Thread and many more.

Daisy is also the co-founder of HEARD Collective - an artist collective who promote and support women in music, and the co-writer of COVEN - a gig theatre show about witches set to tour in 2020.

Represented by Talentbanq Agency and an award-winning artist, Daisy came first in the Coffee Music Project singer-songwriter competition with her song 'London's on Fire' and her 5 most recent singles are being played in over 600 stores worldwide as Caffe Nero Artist of the Month.

Daisy has been busy performing both in the UK and abroad with tours to America (Nashville, New York, LA) and festival appearances including Glastonbury, Cornbury, Love Supreme, Black Deer and Summertyne and even had a debut in the Danny Boyle/Richard Curtis feature film Yesterday as an onstage ukulele player at Wembley and vocalist on the soundtrack. As an accomplished multi-instrumentalist, Daisy performs either solo with guitar, banjo, ukulele and piano or with band members on double bass, pedal steel, drums, cello, fiddle and harp.

One of Paul Sexton's 'top music tips', Daisy's music has been compared to Simon and Garfunkel and Joni Mitchell by BBC Radio Kent, likened to Cat Power by her mentor Sir Ray Davies and given the thumbs up by Sir Paul McCartney after a performance at the Royal Albert Hall.
