Dayshell is an American post-hardcore band from Southern California, United States. Their debut self-titled was released on October 15, 2013. The band's second album, Nexus, was released on October 7, 2016. The band is currently working on a third album that is untitled as of this time.
Dayshell came to prominence after Shayley Bourget's departure from metalcore band Of Mice & Men in 2012. Dayshell was initially a side project started with Bourget & Martinez in the beginning of 2012. On March 10 2012, the two released a demo version of the song "Share With Me." Fans of Bourget reacted with great positivity to the song and what it meant to them. The launch of the demo created a tiny whirlwind of steam for the two. Before the group had a full line up, Martinez was contacted by phone by Sumerian Records. Former ex band member of Covette, Jordan Wooley, Bass, had joined the duo Summer 2012. \ The band released a video titled 'The Beginning' discussing how the band first formed.
The band signed to the label Sumerian Records with a video teaser to the release of "Share With Me" from the band's self-titled album including, three later singles from the debut. Tyler Shippy was welcomed into the band on February 27, 2014. After the release of their self-titled they embarked a tour with bands, Middle Class Rut and Chevelle and a tour in North America, and the European Tour across Europe and the UK supporting The Word Alive, I See Stars, Crown The Empire, Get Scared and Palisades.
The band announced the departures of Shippy in February, 2015 and Martinez in July, 2015 on Facebook citing personal and creative differences. Despite the departure of Shippy and Martinez the band continued to tour on the All Stars Tour in May, 2015 then followed by the Dance Gavin Dance 10 Year Anniversary Tour alongside Slaves, A lot Like Birds and Strawberry Girls in November and December 2015.
