I am a real sucker for vocal harmonies, so I’m swooning over “Heartbreakin’ Cowboy,” the debut single from Yugambeh Country/Gold Coast duo Paper Daisies. Britt Grey and Rhea Robertson, the voices and songwriters behind Paper Daisies have been friends for a decade, and you get a sense of their closeness in the music they’re creating.
“We know each other’s stories, we’ve lived through things together, and that depth of connection finds its way into everything we create,” they explained. “We’re drawing from a shared well of experience, and we bring a perspective that is genuinely and unapologetically female.”
About “Heartbreakin’ Cowboy,” they commented “We headed into writing with the idea of creating something that felt like the end of a really good day. Music that kind of wraps itself around you and settles in your chest, like that lingering, hazy feeling of golden hour.”
Paper Daisies will next play Distillery Road Market at Yugambeh Country/Eagleby on June 28.
