SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Download! Dum Dum Girls - 'Lord Knows'
Dum Dum Girls have just released a new song online called 'Lord Knows'! 'Lord Knows' is the first single from a new EP called 'End Of Daze' which will be released on September 25th on Sub Pop.
The EP features five tracks including a cover of 80's female duo Strawberry Switchblade's 'Trees And Flowers'. 'End Of Daze' (like both of their full length albums) was produced by Richard Gottehrer - who's great body of work includes producing the debut albums for two of my all time favorite bands - Blondie and The Go-Go's!
Singer Kristen Gundred aka Dee Dee laments breaking a boys heart on 'Lord Knows' in a classic 60's girl group style - and if the song is to your liking you can download a copy for free from the band's website here: http://www.wearedumdumgirls.com/

SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Download! Dum Dum Girls!
SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Download! Dum Dum Girls - 'Coming Down' The Dum Dum Girls are an all female four piece band from Los Angeles, led by singer/ songwriter Kristen Grunded aka Dee Dee. They released their debut album called 'I Will Be' on Seattle's Sub Pop Records last March. It was produced by Richard Gottehrer - who is responsible for producing the debut albums from Blondie and the Go-Go's. The Dum Dum Girls are a bit darker sounding than those two bands - they've cited The Ronettes, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Jesus & Mary Chain and Mazzy Star as major influences.
Dum Dum Girls are set to release their second album called 'Only In Dreams' in September. The album is preceded by the tragic passing of her mother last October, who was suffering from brain cancer. Dee Dee describes this difficult period thusly: 'It was really hard to figure out how to balance the opportunity of having a record out on Sub Pop and wanting to tour, and then feeling really awful for not staying home and just quitting music for the year. Our next record, as much as I really love the songs, is definitely a dark record.'
The good news is that if this powerful song is to your liking, Sub Pop has made it available as a free download which you can get here: http://www.subpop.com/artists/dum_dum_girls
The Dum Dum Girls will be touring this fall in support of 'Only In Dreams' and will arrive in Vancouver on Saturday October 8th to perfrom at the Electric Owl! Tickets are on sale now here:

This is first single from 'Only In Dreams' - the beautifully sad 'Coming Down' - singer Dee Dee sounds a bit like the legendary Chrissie Hynde at times here... Enjoy!
