Darlin' was a French rock band formed in 1992 by Laurent Brancowitz, Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo. Members of the band went on to form Daft Punk and Phoenix.
Background
[edit]Their name was taken from the Beach Boys song of the same name.[1] A review in British music magazine Melody Maker called the music "a daft punky thrash".[2]
After this short-lived group disbanded, Bangalter and de Homem-Christo created Daft Punk in 1993 until its later disbandment in 2021.[3] Meanwhile, Brancowitz joined his younger brother Christian Mazzalai in the band Phoenix.[citation needed]
Daft Punk made a surprise appearance during the encore of Phoenix's show at Madison Square Garden in October 2010.[4]
