Artist History lorrie started the daydream believers after getting her ph.d. in english literature and fleeing from academia. she has been playing guitar and writing songs since she was 10. first, the band was called star vomit, but our music appealed to a broader audience than the name allowed and our music didn't really sound like vomit at all, so we changed the name. brent has been playing in bands and doing studio work for a long time. lorrie met him in a record store when they were talking about the clash.

Group Members lorrie sprecher writes the songs, plays guitar and bass and sings. brent gonsalves plays the drums and bass.
