Daisy (Brand New Album)
''Daisy'' is the fourth studio album by American rock band Brand New, released September 22, 2009 on Interscope. ''Daisy'' was co-produced by both the band and their longtime producer Mike Sapone.

Guitarist Vincent Accardi had a larger role in writing the album's lyrics, sharing the responsibility with frontman Jesse Lacey. The album leaked three weeks prior to its release, and the song "At the Bottom" was the only single released.
