An unusually gleeful string band that celebrates both tradition and improvisation, Rani Arbo and daisy mayhem play sparkling original songs and a deep repertoire of traditional tunes that spans 200 years of American music. Using fiddle, guitar, standup bass, bass drum, tin can cymbals, ukulele and more, this mom-run band immerses its audience in an unforgettably beautiful morning of song.
Rani Arbo grew up in the Upper Westside, was once a chorister at Cathedral of St. John the Divine, and is now raising a son in Connecticut with her husband and bandmate Scott Kessel. The band daisy mayhem also includes vocals and multi-instrumental virtuosity from Andrew Kinsey and Anand Nayak (who also performs with SteveSongs and Alastair Moock).

Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem’s first family music CD, Ranky Tanky, gets regular spins on Sirius Satellite Radio. It won a Parents' Choice Gold award and made several “best of the year” lists in 2010. Rani will soon release a new album for grown-ups, too.
