I forgot about them until they just now popped up on my feed. Such an incredible band.

I ran into Elena at a music festival a few years ago and asked for a picture together. She offered to take the photo for us and was giggling the same exact way you see in this video. Then I told her "You don't act like your music," and she went "Oh, um. Depressed...!" making a teardrops-down-my-face gesture with her fingers. I died.

I've never heard them before this, so this is my first time being exposed to them. She gives me the first impression that she has had a rough past, as many have. Being awkward and probably different from everyone she's known, never knowing where she fit. But then she found that she loses herself in her music - as you said, I get the sense that she is still that same awkward girl, never really fitting in, but that now she is ok with it, and has, in a sense, found that her "place" is not having a place. She loves her music and is at home there - she just visits us out here in the real world when she's not playing.

This is exactly it. The heaviness inside. Almost like there's a hole in there that's pulling everything in. Why do I feel so nice that someone else understands this...

When i went to watch them live at Pukkelpop (Belgian Festival) a couple of years ago, they arrived 45 minutes late. Nearly half the people had already left the tent when they finally showed up. Apparently their instruments were lost on the plain to Belgium. They eventually managed to borrow some guitars from a helpful band also attending the festival, and had to improvise on the drums or something iirc. The performance was a magical and pure moment, in the middle of the heat & busyness of an 80.000 people festival. When they played Youth, which was their only well-known song at the time, Elena started to lose her voice a bit, overwhelmed by emotion, while the small crowd completely took over for her. One of the best live experiences in my life.

as soon as the first notes started, i uttered my most sincere "oh boy"

I cried, I can really see her sadness when she sings. The soon she sings, it's like she immediately pulls back into her memories. Of the times she was hurt, she was alone and sad. The way she looks when she says "i hate you" in landfill, and the look in her eyes around 5:00... i got very emotional. Also they are such incredibly shy people and I love that they did this performance I feel like it may took some courage of her. I saw them live and they were incredibly cute to see. Elena was so shy she couldn't look the public in the eye during the concert at all. She and (I suspect boyfriend) Igor kept making eye contact during the show and smiled cutesy to each other. It was endearing to see.

"Its ok, we're Just completely awkward People". Helena is so cute and amazing. So tallented

I have this memory, listening to the daughter's tiny desk concert with good companies and chilling in our apartment. Now I'm away, this hits me different taking me back to the moment:)

Send you lots of blessings!

When I first heard youth I knew this was gonna be my favorite band.

I get a little droplet of a tear in the corner of my eye every time I hear this band. Gorgeous, gorgeous music.

It's amazing that such shy people choose to give live performances. They seem uncomfortable under the bright lights.

Sean W Connor I think something beneficial about live performances like these is that you get to see the band or artist as is, not behind a bunch of highly produced recordings. Although I love the music, and will always appreciate it, I also like to see the artist, it feels more intimate

Kyle O'Connor I agree. I much prefer the unplugged, intimate performance. It's the best way to gauge the artist's true talent.

+oldwhtman Regardless of how shy someone is, adrenaline is adrenaline and there is a standard on NPR for flawless, contained performances. They really only allow artists they know are classy and have self control on the show.

"We are just awkward people!" I felt that, deep down in me

i cant believe her voice just sounds like that... amazing

she is so beautiful, inside and out.

I saw Daughter this past weekend in Boston. I spent the entire concert engrossed in Elena.. she is captivating, beautiful, and so fragile. The meaning behind each word she sings is insanity at best

Your profile picture looks nice. Digging the beanie man

I just love the truth and sincerity in her voice and the way she does it.

It's been over a year since I found this video, and I still watch it at least once a week. I don't see that stopping any time soon.

I love Daughter so much it hurts

"If you're still breathing you're the lucky ones, cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs." Just beautiful.

First heard daughter in 2012, I saw them live in 2013... I also happened to meet her after the show. She is one of the sweetest and humble artists I have met

Since discovering Neil Young and his big music catalogue over 25 years ago, I haven't been as excited hearing of a new band like Daughter about 2 years ago. I discovered them while searching for similar bands like Wildes, with "Bare" being my favorite song of theirs. The music of Daughter matches my soul frequency. If it was made of glass it would break. It feels like their music is made just for me. Amazing and beautiful arrangements in its simplicity and with a deep sensitivity. Great lyrics and voice. Very special for me. It's the pauses and single notes and words that matter. They've perfected it and I'm very glad I've discovered them. Too bad they put out only so few albums.

in the landfill song, the drummer was doing the things! well done drummer person, you nailed the drum things!!! :)

Landfill is absolutely incredible music.

daughter is just so talented like this is so pure. the sound, the instrumentals, Elena's voice and vocals. this is exactly like the studio version. I'm just so ecstatic to watch them do this. I am so glad I know they exist❤️

This reminds me of my tumblr times when I only shared black and white pictures with sad quotes in them
