"Think a hippie Karen O fronting Black Sabbath and
you're somewhere in the caustic,
blues-riffing ballpark as these Los Angelinos.
A hollerin', howlin', hell-raising duo." NME

White sound like the Disney Club." THE INDEPENDENT
Los Angeles based band Deap Vally are excited to announce the release of their debut single, "Gonna Make My Own Money," on
Ark Recordings on July 31st. The song is a raucous and energetic blues
rocker with an infectious chorus that puts this all-girl group on the
map as heirs apparent to the throne left vacant by West Coasters
Sleater Kinney and Bikini Kill. You can listen to and host the song via
the SoundCloud link below.
The
band also released a video for "Gonna Make My Own Money," directed by
Pablo Balderas. The video's style fits the song perfectly, presenting a
hazy day-in-the-life aesthetic to what appears to be a scorching day in
Los Angeles (is there any other type?), complete with lighting
reminiscent of today's retro Instragram-style, car rides, and breaks to
swim in the pool. Check out the video at the link below:
Bringing rock-hard grit and all-girl soul from the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles County, Deap Vally is
made up of the howl of Lindsey Troy and the rhythm of Julie Edwards.
Together, the duo break blues down to its simplest, most fundamental
form: beat, melody, and meaning, while their scorching live shows are
fast becoming the stuff of legend.
Deap Vally first met at a needlework class - yes, really - last year. Bonding over their crochet hooks with a love of the blues, first demos and videos of the girls' live shows have been cropping up online with increasing frequency over the past few months, playing w/ Soundgarden at Hyde Park in London this summer, and they've even caught the ears of one Josh Homme, whose Eagles of Death Metal invited the girls to open for them in LA.
