Biography

Although the music of the ‘60s and ‘70s seems long ago, the energetic retro rock sound of Dirty Blind captures the authenticity of that era with a modern twist. Originally formed in Boston by Pete Jacobs, the band has had success touring with Jefferson Starship and Keystone Revisited. Joined by “Miss Christine” Moad, they began recording their debut EP “Clockwise” with Matthew Ellard (Radiohead, Black Sabbath, Weezer) at Q Division Studios in Somerville, MA. Dirty Blind now resides in Nashville, TN where they released “Clockwise” in June of 2014.

DAEM
noun [deym]
1. One's creative pseudonym evoked as a new representation of a once-known derogatory, yet equally once-known honorable term directed towards women.
2. Born and raised in Montana, she attained a degree from Berklee College of Music and now hails from Nashville, Tennessee. DAEM is fervently pursuing the artistry and craftsmanship of songwriting. She does not identify with one genre, but rather thrives within the realms of what is inspired; collaborating the organic elements of prior musical generations with today's opportunistic digital era. Amidst her passions for creating, DAEM is also an activist and advocate for humanitarian causes, specifically Victims' Rights.

After teaming up with Andrew Seltzer (Coyote Kisses, FLORIO, Amy & The Engine) to release her debut EP, 'Night Songs' -- a conceptual compilation of heartache, ways of animal instinct and odes to dreams of a vintage lifestyle that occur when the sun falls asleep -- DAEM hit the road with Australia-based act, NONIE. Upon returning, she dove straight back into creative depths. She shall be rising back to the surface, new gems in-hand, within the months to come.

DAEM is currently managed and booked by Blue Groove Industries of Melbourne, Australia.
