Daydream Review

BIOGRAPHY

Elijah Montez began his psychedelic pop project Daydream Review after moving across the country from Austin to Chicago. While he cut his teeth in the live music capital of the world, he began writing his first songs as Daydream Review in anticipation of this big change.

In this way, Daydream Review's songs are equally about the excitement that expectations of the future can bring as much as the anxiety or dread. Just as Montez's lyrics walk the line between excitement and anxiety, his multi-layered songs offer moments of clarity in between his reverberated vocals, fuzzy guitars, and a wash of keyboards.

 Montez also finds inspiration between the classic 60’s artists as much as our psychedelic rock contemporaries. In fact, over the past few years, Daydream Review has opened for modern psychedelic pioneers such as Sugar Candy Mountain, Triptides, and The Mattson 2.
