Over the last several years, Daisyhead have staked out their turf in Nashville’s emo scene, releasing albums and touring around the States and in Europe. This past January, however, the band — led by Michael Roe — decided to take a break for the sake of their mental, physical, and financial health; they played a "Goodbye For Now" show in March at Cafe Coco. But just in time for the holidays, Daisyhead has sprung back in partnership with mental heath education non-profit Hope For The Day to release new music. The band’s upcoming EP I’ve Been Better covers some of the personal growth and therapy that Roe’s experienced over the year. The first track from the EP, "Making Me Feel Safe", kicks off the chorus with the line "I don’t wanna go on thinking every breath I take is a mistake", which sets the triumphant tone that Roe and Daisyhead have chosen to take on their road to recovery and renewal. "Making Me Feel Safe" also has a video, which you can watch below. Let’s hope that 2019 brings good things to Daisyhead. – Will Sisskind
