Crushing the Hot Barista: Abigail Fierce’s “Daphne” is a love song humming with transcendence

“I have this dream where you and I are walking
in downtown Seattle and it’s pouring…
and you pull me in,
I’m inches from your lips,
but I always wake up’
before we kiss…”

“Daphne,” the latest incredible release from LGBT alternative pop-rockstar Abigail Fierce, is a love song humming with transcendence.

Every sublime Tuesday, sometime in the recent past, Abigail Fierce would wake up and float off to her local coffee shop. There she found herself pining after the cute barista with cat-eye eyeliner and a black beanie. The barista never wore a name tag, so Abigail nicknamed her Daphne. The song tells the story of 2 girls in love but in the bridge it is revealed that the singer is just dreaming of her local barista, who’s real name she doesn’t even know. With a keen mix of sharp lyrical metaphors, dreamy storytelling and fun, loud guitars, this song is sure to be an indie summer anthem and the charming love song that sapphic women and girls have been looking for their whole lives.

The Los Angeles based artist provides an escape from the mundane with her signature witty lyricism and killer guitar rhythms. Known for bending genre norms and constantly pushing boundaries with her avant-cool sounds, Abigail Fierce rocks classic 00’s pop nostalgia and immerses you in her glamorous, dangerously exhilarating, powerchick metaverse.

Abigail is best in front of the camera – you can’t help but recognize her from her on point roles in Hulu’s “Love, Victor”, NBC’s “This Is Us”, Netflix’s “American Vandal” and the recent-ish Paramount+ movie “Fantasy Football”, starring Kelly Rowland of Destiny’s Child. Abigail Fierce has over 4 million streams on Spotify and her songs have placed in several of the top songwriting competitions.
