Artist History Formed in spring 2000 by English singer/songwriter Mat Hammond and American guitarist/songwriter Nate Shvers. Along the way they recruited L.A.musician Steve Flores on bass and Texan Ralph Barr on drums to complete the sound. With Hammond’s accented vocals, Shivers soaring guitar and the solid backbeat of Flores and Barr the Daylytes are attracting attention at every show. “Putting the song first” has always been the band’s motto..Drawing inspiration from the emotional highs and lows of everyday life their songs have found a niche with audiences across the country and beyond. The Anglo-American influence has benefitted the Daylytes in many ways. Their hi-bred musical style has enabled the band to play shows and be on playlists that feature a variety of musical genres. SPIN is the first collection of songs from the Daylytes with plenty more to come.

Enter Living Daylytes, Singer/Guitarist Mat Hammond (Brit) and Nate Shivers (Yank) are a formidable songwriting team, and their debut is full of bracing guitar hooks and rousing melodies best exemplified by lead single "Wake up call." Spin is a promising start for an up and coming band”. Thomas Bond, Get Out.
