Today, Daughter release Stereo Mind Game, the new album from the trio of Elena Tonra, Igor Haefeli and Remi Aguilella. Their first studio album for seven years, it features singles ‘Swim Back’, accompanied by London string orchestra 12 Ensemble; ‘Party’, a track that recounts the place that Elena Tonra got to before deciding to give up alcohol, and ‘Be On Your Way’, a longing but resilient song about an enduring connection that is also undefinable as well as latest single, To Rage’.

Connection and disconnection permeate Stereo Mind Game’s twelve songs literally and figuratively. In the intervening years since the Ivor Novello-nominated Music from Before the Storm (2017), the band has moved away from their initial London base – Aguilella relocated to Portland, Oregon, Haefeli to Bristol, England – and spent time on their own projects (including Tonra’s debut solo album under the moniker Ex:Re in 2018). However, despite the physical distance – further exacerbated by the pandemic – Daughter continued to meet and write together. Produced by Haefeli and Tonra, Stereo Mind Game was written and recorded in various locations including Devon, Bristol and London, San Diego, Portland and Vancouver.
Recently named Rough Trade’s Album of the Month for April, Stereo Mind Game will be available digitally, on CD, cassette and on standard vinyl formats in eco-black, eco-mix colour (indie retailers only) and limited edition green (Rough Trade Shops exclusive). For more information head HERE.
The pop-up shop coincides with Daughter’s intimate live performance and signing session tonight at London’s Rough Trade East. The event is now sold out.
