Track surpasses 105 million combined global streams
Accompanied by guitar, Katy Perry gives a passionate, stripped-down performance of her anthemic new single on “Daisies” (Acoustic), released via Capitol Records. Since its release in May, “Daisies” has amassed more than 105 million combined global streams. Oliver Heldens and MK have remixed the song, which is approaching the top 10 at Hot AC radio. The track is from her forthcoming as-yet-untitled fifth studio album, known as KP5, which will be released on August 14th by Capitol Records.
Following her performance on the American Idol season finale, Idolator said, “[She] belted out ‘Daisies’ with the help of cutting-edge technology, which found her soaring through the sky.” Billboard hailed it as “spectacular” while Metro UK found it “mind-bending.” She launched the 2020 Good Morning America Concert Series with a performance of “Daisies.” Perry also performed the song at YouTube Originals’ “Dear Class Of 2020” virtual commencement ceremony, on the #BeApp as part of the Coke Studio Sessions and during her iHeartRadio Living Room Concert Series session at Hotel Café in Los Angeles, the club where she got her start 15 years ago.
Perry co-headlined the recent Democracy Summer 2020 livestream. The event kicked off a campaign to register 200,000 new voters this summer, led by a coalition that includes Rock the Vote, Voto Latino Foundation, When We All Vote, March For Our Lives and others.
