LA-based trio The Dead Ships craft soulful garage rock that’s earned them comparisons to The Strokes, The Black Keys, and Alabama Shakes. Now, in anticipation of a new EP to be released early next year, the band has shared a brand new single that showcases their powerhouse sound with driving guitars, fervent percussion, and gritty vocals.
Produced by Broken Social Scene’s Brendan Canning and mixed by the Grammy-nominated Alex Newport (At The Drive-In, Death Cab for Cutie, Bloc Party), you can download “Canyon” where it premiered with Culture Collide or via Soundcloud. You can also watch the band perform the single live for BalconyTV. Having toured with PAPA and shared stages with Yo La Tengo, She & Him, Childish Gambino and more, the band will play a hometown show at The Satellite this Friday (10/10) before heading to NYC for CMJ later this month.
