Daffo shares single "Quick Fix"

Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Daffo shares new single "Quick Fix," following the release of the Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith, Beck, Cat Power) produced "Absence Makes The Heart Grow." Daffo is the moniker of Gabi Gamberg, who says of the song,

"This song is about the temporary ways in which I comfort myself, habits that ultimately lead to more suffering,” Gamberg explains. “I started the song before I went on my first tour. The first verse, about eating junk and smoking, I squeezed out during a very intense writer's block. On tour, I quit smoking for my voice. When I came back from tour I still couldn’t write, until one day I started smoking again. That day I was able to finish the song, my slight regression became fuel for the rest of the words."
