Dude York might be the gnarliest band name in the business, and their latest EP Happy In The Meantime is a catchy 4 song EP of poppy garage rock as sugary and delicious as the sour apple blow pop on the cover. Crunchy guitars and super polished boy-girl vocals throughout would be perfectly at home on the roster of Nashville’s Infinity Cat Records except for the fact that Dude York is from Seattle. Music this sunny isn’t supposed to come from such a dreary town!
Dude York don’t stray too far from pre-established subjects such as alienation and being young and broke but they tackle these topics with boundless enthusiasm and shout along hooks. We’ve all either been there and survived or are currently in the same boat, but we can all relate and lift our beers as we sing along.
