Daydrunk is an musician from Australia who makes quiet music inspired by his life, my wife and two boys. This includes his most recently shared single “Tiptoe Around”, which captures the “strange, fragile hours of early parenthood.”
There’s an upbeat and lively pulse to the folk-themed rocker that has a strong upbeat nature and momentum that has some folk-leaning qualities that burst into life during every passing moment of the track. There’s a soothing and calming presence to the track, which delivers its message in a gorgeous manner that blends the worlds of folk, pop, and rock into something of his own creation that is a force to be reckoned with.
Or as they put it:
“Tiptoe Around” captures the strange, fragile hours of early parenthood, when the house finally goes quiet but you’re still moving carefully through the dark, trying not to wake anyone. Built around an uneasy 7/4 motif that opens and closes the song, it shifts into an upbeat train-beat groove blending indie rock, bluegrass and psychedelic pop before dissolving back into a hushed lullaby, the moment when the kids wake again and the night starts over.
