Thoughts: I mean, they aren't from Dallas? C'mon false advertising. But these dudes are fun - I have been enjoying the jams. Kind of like one of those college bands like West 22nd cleaned up, got a good producer, listened to the Strokes, and learned to really love the guitar. They claim psych-rock or blues rock, which, sure.
Lead singer met the band over time, sort of collecting good musicians as he wandered about NYC. Kind of a fun idea of band building. One anecdote made me laugh: "I remember when we were chatting, I asked you at some point – I looked around, making sure nobody was listening – “Do you like John Mayer?” You gotta be careful saying that, man."
Ah, that is the reason for the name, the lead singer's name is Ryan Dallas Wax. Some of them had previously played in a band called Water Gun, but they have been doing this since 2023. They only have eight songs, so it just dawned on me that Spotify had been playing a random mismash of other similar bands. Dammit (I liked some of those other songs a lot!). Top single is "Mud" with 69k streams.
woo, woo, woooooo! Yeah, I think these guys are raw and may be fun to see play their jams out loud. Being that it looks like the rock will be few and far between on this lineup card, I may have to take what I can get!
