notes

“Kiss Kiss Bang Bang . . . Chloe Day's music resonates like a siren call. Her agonizing sound submerges listeners into a dream-like state with its seductive, yet dangerous feel . . . edgy, breathy, flirty, eerie, and eccentric."

-Arizona Daily Sun

Chloe Day is a woman obsessed.

Not a day goes by without her being distracted by melody. It might have bit her at a friend's house, maybe in the car or skating through the alleys of her neighborhood in Venice Beach, CA.

She probably won't notice when the notes swim into patterns and words sort of fall into place.

"I can't remember when I didn't have a song stuck in my head," she says.

Chloe grew up exploring the radio dial from end to end to find new music.

Soon after she moved from her home town of St. Louis to L.A., she went on a 3-month hitchhike through Mexico, where she eventually stepped into a Tijuana roadside shop and bumbled her way through broken Spanglish to her first guitar.

Songwriting and performing became instant addictions and went from open mics in Santa Monica to gigs around Hollywood, and in time to ranking among the Top Artists on MySpace in both Trip-Hop and Electronica.

“With a little girl croon that sounds half-seductive, half-lethal, Chloe Day leaves her audience curious as to whether she plans to kiss them or kill them. And yet, her performances are so hypnotizing, listeners would probably consent, spiral-eyed, to either.” - Riverfront Times

It was at Hollywood hotspot Molly Malone's that Chloe crossed paths with producer Meghan Gohil and began work on her debut release, The Return Of...

“The album vibrates with the trashy percussive grooves of hip-hop and the creepy, tensile ambience of electronica... her songs have edginess in spades.” -Roy Kasten (KDHX/RFT St. Louis)

Her sophomore release, Pixie Runway, followed less than a year later and led to regional touring around the States.

"The term 'pixie' in the title is no accident; Day has this awesome voice that is sexy, sweet, and just a little predatory." -Playback:STL

Both albums have met with critical acclaim and been catching the attention of radio tastemakers around the States, with strong listener responses on Modern Rock stations such as KUPD (Phoenix AZ), KPNT (St. Louis MO), and KATT (Oklahoma City OK).

Be sure to keep an ear out for The Return Of...'s opening track "Kingpin" in Eric Byler's latest film "Americanese," winner of several SXSW 2006 awards.

    This CD has been in my car stereo for the entire past week. I love listening to it everywhere I go.

  • trop court
    author: leuthis

    album qui commence sur une musique électronique pour bifurquer très vite sur piano et guitare sèche;le seul lien est la voix aiguë de Chloe Day. 9 chansons pour à peine plus de 25 minutes, on en attends un peu plus pour la suite.
