Slaying the Dandies

About Me

Hailing from the madness that is Los Angeles comes Slaying the Dandies. These guys and gals are the undefeatable persevering x-members of L.A. punk rock band Snap-Her. They’ve all been playing since they were kids and have the notches in their belts to prove it. Aside from being highly accomplished classical musicians, they have done their time in such bands as Exene’s Original Sinners, Mobtown, and the Two Dollar Pistols (played on Indy 103.1’s Watusi Rodeo). With strong roots in punk rock, rockabilly, reggae, and ska this band creates music that is interesting even to the educated ear. Being that they are big fans of Sylvia Plath, the name Slaying the Dandies was formulated from a line in one of Plath’s poems that literally means to impress people. These guys are also all members of the Chapel Hill based ska/rock band Regatta69 and are not afraid to go on tour and pull off two to four different sets a night just for the thrill of it. It’s in this manner that they have created a whirlwind all across the U.S. and Europe, even terrorizing the more obscure places like Slovenia and the Czech Republic.Slaying the Dandies’ debut album, The Wait’s Begun Again, allows us to hear how they creatively intertwine many different genres of music while holding tight to their own specific “sound”. They are one hard-working band that remains focused on their goals without losing sight of their fun and energetic attitude. coolmyspace.com
