Frances Whitney Presents: Daisy’s Mixtape Tour

Frances Whitney brings Daisy’s Mixtape Tour to El Cid, presenting a set around her second EP, Daisy’s Mixtape, due this fall. Billed solely under her own name, the Los Angeles date puts her California-rooted singer-songwriter writing in focus, with the listing describing the music as confessional alternative folk. It is an all-ages evening at the Silver Lake venue.
Whitney is a Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter who was raised in San Francisco. Her Old Hobbies EP was released through 604 Records, and has been described as eight acoustic, lyric-forward songs. A listener responding to “Biggest Fan” called it “stunning,” pointing to its subtle arrangement, strings, vocals and lyrics. The available information does not specify a live formation or collaborators, but it places Whitney’s work in a direct, song-led tradition where the words and arrangements carry the weight.
El Cid pairs live entertainment with a long-running Spanish dining and flamenco tradition: the venue’s own history traces its entertainment roots to 1925, while its restaurant dates its present Spanish identity to 1962. The historic interior is described as a Spanish tavern, with dark wood beams, brick and tile, and winding staircases; patios offer a place to eat before the show. A full restaurant serves tapas and entrees, including paella and gambas, and the bar serves drinks. The events calendar lists concerts and parties, while flamenco remains a defining part of the programme. Check the listing for your show’s ticket and seating details, since the available information does not establish a single format for every event. El Cid’s current site gives its address as 4212 W Sunset Blvd in Silver Lake.
