Daily Worker Share Radio Gurls Video

Leave a comment

If you’re a great songwriter, you don’t generally need a lot of gimmicks or tricks, which is why I’ve always appreciated Daily Worker and Harold Whit Williams. His songs have this timelessness, embracing life’s joy and generally kicking it out with a tasty little hook that easily satisfies. Now, we’ve got a fresh track for your ears, dropping in some chunky punk riffs, with a tasty little solo, and a bit of jubilation hitting in the chorus. When it switches gears and drops in that punch, you’re immediately greeted with a that tasty treat you’ve been looking for all day. This track will appear on a new album titled Burn it All Down (Songs for Corey) dropping on November 16th via Radio Gurl Records.

Daily Worker Shares Look to the Light Video, Releases Melancholia EP

Leave a comment

Earlier this year, former Cotton Mather guitarist Harold Whit Williams brought us Autofiction under his Daily Worker moniker, but not one to rest on his laurels, he’s already had a few EPs drop, including the release of Melancholia today. With said release, Harold sent us over a video for stunner “Look to the Light,” a track that plays with hints of Americana and jangling guitar notes. It’s one of those songs that tugs at the moment, begging us to try and find glimmers of positivity in the world around us. The video accompaniment moves back and forth between nostalgic footage and black/white video of Harold and his guitar. You should take a moment today to spend time with Melancholia; you can stream it all HERE.

Daily Worker Share My Drug

Leave a comment

Harold Whit Williams has made a name for himself as a member of Cotton Mather, but the longtime Austinite is now dedicated to working things out on his own…thus here we are with a brand new single from his Daily Worker project. Listening to this title track from the My Drug EP, I can’t help but think back to the brand of pop popularized by indie nerds who loved bands like Beulah. The way Williams and the backing vocalist have that little joyous rise in the melody just makes this perfect little piece of pop taffy for me to nibble on. There’s never a bad day for some good old fashioned pop rock, and Mr. Wililams is aiming to please right from the start. My Drug EP is out on October 1st.
