Upon catching a soundbite of "Coming Down", I was on a music search to find more. First thoughts were that this was long-lost track from the 90's alternative girl rock era. Instead my search led to the uncovering of a new up-and-coming band, Dum Dum Girls. The inspiration behind the band's formation and lead singer Dee Dee (Kristen Gundred) brings a distinct, powerful, and clean vocal presence that is backed by upbeat pop beats and gritty droning guitar. Their music has influential sounds pulled from 1980's college alternative rock, 1990's grunge rock, mixed with undertones of southern California surf pop. After listening to their latest release, Only in Dreams, the 6:30 power ballad "Coming Down" became an instant favorite.
Notable Tracks:
1. "Always Looking"
7. "Coming Down"
8. "Wasted Away"
9. "Tear Drops On My Pillow"
