Where? Toronto (Canada) Who? Katie Monks, Liz Ball, Jimmy Tony, Benjamin Reinhartz
For fans of: Breeders, The Pixies, Sonic Youth
At a glance, it seems that Dilly Dally is just a new band that is about to release their debut full-length and the press is just saying wonderful things, but one thing is certain, they worked hard to be heard and they’re finally being heard. Katie Monks and Liz Ball met twelve years ago and instantly became friends and shared the same passion for music. The Toronto-based duo had a common love for bands like The Pixies, Nirvana and both self-taught playing guitar. After releasing some singles and playing live shows in every single venue in Toronto, things weren’t easy and the girls weren’t getting the attention they deserved. After years of rotating members, they have settled with Benjamin Reinhartz on drums and Jimmy Tony on bass, and their live shows became more energetic and dynamic.
Sore is the debut album and, with the singles unveiled, it feels that’s going to be a pure heavy and melodic record, and Monks will become your favorite singer, because she just shouts out her thoughts and emotions. Sore will be released via Partisan Records and Buzz Records on October 9th.
