On The Record: Daffo

Soundtracking the growing pains of self-confrontation is by no means a simple task. Yet, Gabi Gamberg, the voice behind Daffo, does so expertly through an unfettered invitation into their inner world. With unabashed self-expression, Daffo turns the ugly feelings we often push aside inside-out, leaving them on full display. Having shared the stage with artists like Annie DiRusso and Sir Chloe, Gabi speaks to the admiration they hold for their peers’ dedication to their craft, and those learnings are echoed in their own music.

On the heels of their first full-length album, Where the Earth Bends, Daffo got On the Record with WNXP to speak to the newfound lyrical and melodic articulation that they have harnessed as they have settled into their place as an emerging indie rock icon. Though the album tackles the rougher parts of being, it offers a seldom-matched catharsis that can only be achieved from a source of true intimacy and tenderness.
