The Dead Daisies

The Dead Daisies are a unique musical collective founded in 2012 by Australian guitarist David Lowy. Functioning as a high-end supergroup with a revolving door of legendary contributors, the project serves as a preservation society for the 1970s hard rock aesthetic.

Their sound identity is rooted in the 'soulful hard rock' tradition, drawing heavily from the blues-rock foundations of Bad Company, The Faces, and Foreigner. Throughout their career, they have maintained a consistent commitment to high-production values, working with top-tier engineers like John Fields to ensure their vintage-inspired sound competes with modern sonic standards. The band's evolution is marked by its lead vocalists, transitioning from Jon Stevens to John Corabi and later to the 'Voice of Rock' Glenn Hughes, each bringing a different shade of grit to the project. Culturally, they occupy a space as a 'musician's band,' frequently touring with icons like Aerosmith and ZZ Top, and serving as a bridge between the classic rock era and the modern festival circuit. Critical consensus highlights their impeccable craftsmanship and ability to write massive, hook-laden choruses that feel like lost classics.
