DAYS is a band that makes plays and a play inside a band. A collaboration between cellist/performer Ethan Philbrick and actor/playwright Ned Riseley, DAYS creates indie chamber music that merges and deconstructs voice and cello to explore intimacy, theatricality, and everyday mysticisms. They create atmospheric meditations that bring together their distinct sensibilities as musicians and writers, often animated by collaboration with theatrical and musical collaborators. Their first self-titled EP was released in 2021. They are currently working on new music.
