Daisy Peacock returns with her lively new single ‘Girlbestfriend’, out 27 November, and she brings an extra burst of colour with it. The track leans into charm, cheek, and pure indie pop sparkle. Daisy continues her rise across the UK scene through sharp writing, bright melodies, and a voice that carries both humour and heart.
‘Girlbestfriend’ started in her first year at university. She had been talking to a boy who spoke often about his girl best friend, yet he left out the fact that this girl was his ex. The moment annoyed her, so she turned that feeling into a quick-fire song. Because the situation felt so familiar, the track captures that mix of irritation and amusement with ease. Daisy recorded the song with Oli Roberts, and Jamie Sellers shaped the production into something crisp and catchy.
Daisy grew up in Sheffield, and her early love of creative writing shaped the way she approaches music. She listened widely, yet the storytelling edge of 2010s pop had the biggest effect on her. Now based in Birmingham, she blends that influence into a vibrant indie pop sound. Fans of Olivia Rodrigo, Maisie Peters, Chloe Slater, Alessi Rose, and Nieve Ella will feel at home here. Daisy earned top 10 recognition for her debut single in two major songwriting competitions, and she has supported Alfie Jukes, daydreamers, and Blondes. She also appeared at Tramlines and YNOT.
A spark-filled release from a rising name
‘Girlbestfriend’ shows Daisy at her most confident so far. The pace moves quickly, the hooks land cleanly, and her delivery keeps the story at the front. The song balances humour with honesty, offering a small sting beneath the fun. It is a track built for playlists, busy rooms, and anyone who loves a chorus that arrives with a grin.
Review
‘Girlbestfriend’ bursts open with sharp timing and bright energy. Daisy delivers each line with a playful lift, and the melody brings the whole track together with style. The groove stays light, yet it keeps enough drive to feel bold.
The writing stands out. Daisy takes a common situation and reshapes it into something fun without losing the truth behind it. The production gives space to her vocal tone, which adds warmth and personality.
As the track closes, it becomes clear that Daisy is stepping into a stronger phase. ‘Girlbestfriend’ feels crisp, witty, and full of confidence, and it sets her up for a standout year ahead.
