LA sister trio HAIM have just released their debut album “Days Are Gone,” via Jay-Z’s Roc Nation. Daughters of real estate agents, Danielle, Este, and Alana, grew up in California and have managed to break away from the typical surf sounds to a more modern-sounding Fleetwood Mac with a punch. “Days Are Gone” features hit singles “Falling” and “The Wire,” which – unless you’ve been living under a rock – will recognize, and will have you singing along in no time. Additional noteworthy tracks are the Beach Boys-sounding “Honey & I,” and the Wilson Philips inspired “Running If You Call My Name.”
HAIM shows talent that goes far beyond their years, (27, 23, and 21, respectively,) and their success is nothing short of well-deserved. “What’s really funny about this ‘overnight success’ is that we’ve been playing together for over 15 years,” muses Danielle. “We’ve been in Haim for nearly six years. There was nothing going on for us. We were bottom of the bill at 50 capacity venues and no one would show up.”
Well, one thing’s for sure: those “Days Are Gone!”
