Big Scary - Daisy

Daisy is the fourth studio album by Australian musical duo Big Scary, released in April 2021 via Pieater.

Big Scary is an Australian musical duo formed in Melbourne in 2006, by Tom Iansek and Joanna Syme. The pair have released several EPs and four studio albums to date. Their 2013 album Not Art was nominated for the triple j Australian Album of the Year award, AIR Awards Best Independent Album and also for Best Independent Release at the ARIAs. Not Art also won the 2014 Australian Music Prize. By 2013 Iansek had formed a side project, #1 Dads.

Beloved Melbourne duo Big Scary have released their fourth studio album Daisy together with a new single “Stay!”. Jo Syme and Tom Iansek have characterised Daisy as their most playful album yet, with plenty of drama, and for the first time, no guitars.

“Important to the understanding and creation of the album, and everything accompanying it, is a DIY ethos where we challenged ourselves to learn more about what Big Scary is, improving our collaboration on recording, writing, artistic concepts, artwork and how to share our world with fans. Important also to the music is its self-assuredness (or at least a desire for it) - an okayness with being exactly who we are. ‘Mistakes’ were left in the music rather than straightened out or erased. We want to present ourselves more as we naturally are, rather than an image of what we’d like to be.”

This album is a limited edition first pressing on coral pink marbled coloured vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with a printed inner sleeve, pressed in Australia via Pieter.
