The DayBreakers

The Daybreakers were an American garage rock and psychedelic band from Muscatine, Iowa, who were active in the 1960s. They became one of the most popular bands in their region, which included the Quad Cities. Jack Barlow, a popular DJ and country music recording artist, had them record songs for a planned single at Columbia Recording Studios arranged a contract with Atlantic Records, which released the group's single on their Dial label featuring "Psychedelic Siren," which included siren sound effects generated by a primitive electronic device. Though the song became a big regional hit in Iowa, Atlantic lost interest in the band, and they made no further recordings. In the intervening years, their work has come to the attention of garage rock enthusiasts and has been included in several compilations. The Daybreakers were inducted into the Iowa "Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame" in 2008.
