The new single “Do Whatever Gets You High” released June 9th and premiered via Paste Magazine. New album, ‘Find Me At The End of The World’ releases June 30th and pre-orders are available here.

Dubbed “Nashville’s next super-group” by local, independent radio station Lightning 100, The Daybreaks’ music is pure cinematic pop. Fronted by prolific singer/songwriters Kaleb Jones, Heather Bond and multi-instrumentalist, producer Bobby Holland, and joined by Adam Bokesch on drums and Zac Stred on bass, The Daybreaks’ songs are theatrical and haunting but never melodramatic. They pair electrifying, intriguing lyrics with a sound reminiscent of 80s pop with a modern rock twist. Their debut album, Find Me At The End of the World releases on this day – June 30th. New single “Do Whatever Gets You High” releases June 9th. The Daybreaks are currently competing, representing Nashville, against 5 other bands to play Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado on June 26th opening for The Fray as part of Southwest Airlines’ Destination: Red Rocks. Head over to their Southwest.fm page to watch their Live at 35 session playing aboard a full flight from Nashville to LA to unsuspecting passenger to vote for them!

When songwriters Kaleb Jones and Heather Bond began writing music together in early 2015, their goal was not to start a band, but to write songs for use in TV and film. When Bobby Holland heard their early demos and suggested he produce a record for them; Bond and Jones jumped at the opportunity. Holland had previously worked with Jones, producing and mixing his solo concept album, “Open Ocean” (2014), and the two often discussed collaborating on a new project. During the course of recording, Holland began playing and singing background vocals on the project; only then did they seriously consider starting a band. The timing was perfect, and the three decided to form The Daybreaks in December 2015.

Bond, Holland, and Jones are all music industry veterans. Both Jones and Bond have successful solo careers; Bond with her eloquent debut album “So Long” (2015) produced by GRAMMY award winner Matthew Odmark, her vivid “Walk Alone” EP, and various international advertising placements, and Jones as the frontman of Lorien, The Young International, and INTL, along with “Open Ocean,” and success on NBC’s hit series ‘The Sing Off.” Holland’s mixing and producer credits run the gamut from Meghan Linsey, to Sam and Ruby, to Reece Mastin, to Milktooth, as well as INTL’s ‘Mystery,’ and he is a respected multi-instrumentalist.

With The Daybreaks, Holland’s varied sensibility of sound, plus Bond’s piano prowess, paired with Jones’ bold guitar playing, is at once immediately welcoming and uncharted territory. The blend of Bond’s and Jones’ voices is beautiful; Jones’ vocal power is skillfully matched by Bond’s celestial sound, with the combination intensified by Holland’s production. The Daybreaks have written electrifying lyrics that intrigue the listener and beg for repeat spins. Lightning 100, Nashville’s independent radio, quickly dubbed the band a “Nashville super-group.”

The songs are theatrical and haunting, but never melodramatic, with substantive verses that keep the listener firmly on solid ground. The Daybreaks eponymous album is pure cinematic pop.
