Morning Music @ the Coffeehouse - Daughter: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Daughter: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Daughter first popped up on our radar when we heard the London band's song "Landfill" while preparing for SXSW early last year: Achingly pretty and melancholy, the track builds to an absolute gut-punch of a line - "I want you so much, but I hate your guts" - that conjures a pitch-perfect mix of gloom, desire and hostility.

Today's pick is all about minimal instrumentation and direct, biting lyrics. Anyone want a latte?
