Riley Keough might just have the strongest musical pedigree imaginable, but singing didn’t come naturally to her when preparing for DaisyJonesAndTheSix. “In terms of actually using my voice, I’d never done that before,” she tells VF.
I had to act first. Well, I think I simultaneously had to send in an acting audition and also something of me singing. I sent like a little voice note, I think of me and my husband singing together. And my voice was very soft. It was by no means like a powerful singing video. And they kind of said, “This is great, but Daisy needs to be able to really sing.” I think at the time they were looking at professional singers.
I sat there and I was just kind of feeling sorry for myself, and then I said I’m going to get a vocal coach and really give it a chance. So I went to a coach and I worked with him over the weekend. And then I went home and all of a sudden, “Simple Man” bycame into my head. I think in hindsight it was just in my key. So I went back again and I was able to belt for the first time.
Because of your performance in the show, I assumed that you had a long history with singing, obviously with your family legacy and music. Would you say that it’s because of your family’s legacy that music is something you shied away from on purpose, or was it just because acting was more of your interest?
I don’t think I shied away from it on purpose. From as far back as I can remember, I was just obsessed with movies and acting, and writing and I wanted to direct. I don’t think I really thought about it. I loved music, but it wasn’t something that I felt drawn to in the same way that I did with film.about how when you were actually in production, it was sort of a really tough time for you personally and dealing with some autoimmune stuff.
