The Daughters

Band, US
Alternative

Power Pop Punk band formed in early 1980 on the North Shore of Boston, MA, USA. In May 1980, Dave Ives, Bill Doherty, and Joe Mazzari recruited Simon Ritt, in substitution of the first drummer Bobby Morin (later in The Real Kids). When the band won studio time in a battle of the bands competition, they took advantage of this time to record some original songs. These studio recordings ended up on self released cassettes that received airplay on Boston area radio stations. In January 1981, Dave left the band; Joe, Bill, and Simon continued on as a three piece, and at the end of the month played CBGB’s for the first time.
