Daffo - "Habit"

Daffo is the musical moniker of twenty-one year old Gabi Gamberg. The Los Angeles based artist recently released a new single, "Habit." Knowing that Daffo has opened for artists such as Blondshell, illuminati hotties, and Wednesday will give you an idea of what their new single sounds like. The song blends modern indie rock with alt-pop, but Daffo tends to lean more into the indie rock side of things than many of their contemporaries. "Habit" has swirling guitars that move in and out throughout the song, and while there may not be noise throughout, there are some wonderfully distorted guitar solos. Somehow the pop side of the song and the indie rock side perfectly complement each other.

Daffo says of their latest single:

“I wrote that song at a moment when I was having a hard time with my OCD and cyclical thinking. It’s partly about how I tend to come to conclusions about certain situations before even allowing myself to experience them.”
