INTRODUCING: Slingshot Dakota

• 18th Jun 2012

Slingshot Dakota's set-up is simple: Carly Comando is on keys and Tom Patterson plays drums; they're two people who carry the weight of an entire band. They do things with these instruments that most bands can’t do with a standard set up.

2008’s Their Dreams are Dead, but Ours is the Golden Ghost was a seminal release for their entry onto the scene. Romping around the US DIY scene with reckless abandon, they blew away audiences with their at-times more sober lines juxtaposed with moments of their swelling pop sound. When Tom isn’t screenprinting (he does everything from gig posters to commercial ventures to fine art) and Carly isn’t music licensing, they are refining their highly-anticipated album, Dark Hearts, set to come out this year.

Beautiful lo-fi Americana for fans of the Juno soundtrack and college rock, you can check out the video for Until The Day I Die above.
