Reverse Dotty
There are some bands that have the ability to capture and demonstrate those secret feelings you struggle to record in your diary. Reverse Dotty have figured out how to capture that dark Portland mood that only months of grey, rain, shitty jobs, the exclusive company of artists and intellectuals and frequent hangovers can concoct. It’s frustrated, cynical, clever, sexy, and dark music. I love it. It is the sound and soul of the city I live in.
Reverse Dotty first formed in 2006. The current line-up includes Buck Trussel, Felony Dot, Carls 10-4, and D. Train who are all talented multi-instrumentalists and frequently trade roles on stage and in the studio making for an interesting and fresh visual and creative dynamic. Their sound is self-described as “post-pop” and sound like the band that Sonic Youth, B-52s, and Devo would make if they got together in 1979 and made an album. Felony Dot even kinda looks and sounds like Cindy Wilson of the B-52s They have shared the bill with world famous bands such as Yelle, New Young Pony Club, The Kills, and The Gossip.
Check out this awesome music vid they made! They can even ghost ride an ambulance!
