Alcopop! Records are delighted to announce that they have signed masked rock and roll trio DBOY in Europe, alongside their USA and Canada release partners Dine Alone Records.
The band have just announced a short run of UK headline tour dates alongside select appearances at The Great Escape Festival, Hit The North, and Live at Leeds.
Their latest single ‘Dboy For President’ received its first spin from newly-initiated Dboy Scout, Daniel P Carter, on the BBC Radio One Rock Show recently.
The single is out now and available to stream on all good digital service providers: http://smarturl.it/DboyForPresident
Commenting on the signing, label boss Jack Clothier said: “I was coming home from a show the other week, and I spotted this weird grainy video of a band on our friend Ross’ instagram feed and made a mental note that I needed to check it out. It looked ridiculous, and oh so great. Literally 12 hours later said band got in touch out of the blue asking us to take a listen to them. That band was Dboy.
“We fell instantly in love, and simply HAD to work together. So we’re very delighted that, after a thorough reading of the Dboy manifesto, we will be pledging allegiance to The Order Of Dboy Scouts, and welcoming the band to Alcopop! Records. Dboy for president!”
Dboy themselves never speak publicly, instead deferring to their spokesperson Kirill Kutchokokov, President of The Official Dboy Scout Order, to communicate on their behalf, who sent us the following message:
“IN THESE TIMES OF SONIC AND CREATIVE AUSTERITY, IT BECOMES ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT TO RIP THE CHAFF FROM THE GRAIN AND GET RIGHT DOWN TO WHAT MATTERS: THE UNBRIDLED BELIEF IN HUMAN CREATION.
“AS THE SUPERCONDUCTORS OF LOVE, AND THE GOLDEN GOOSE OF THE DBOY BROADCASTING CORPORATION, DBOY CONTINUES TO SEIZE THE MEANS OF TASTE PRODUCTION AND FILL THE CHANNELS WITH SUBSTANCE AND GLAM, AS SUBSTANCE AND GLAM IS WHAT THE KIDS NEED.
“AS SUCH, AND EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, DBOY HAS SEIZED THE JEWEL OF OXFORD—ALCOPOP! RECORDS—IN ORDER TO ESTABLISH THE UK CHAPTER OF THE PERFORMANCE AND RECREATION COUNCIL, AND EXPLORE NEW AVENUES OF AESTHETIC FREEDOM ON THE ISLAND’S SHORES.
“BEGINNING IN MAY, DBOY WILL BE EMBARKING ON A TOUR ACROSS ENGLAND, WALES, AND SCOTLAND, THUS TEARING DOWN THE WALLS OF ARTISTIC DEPRAVITY IN PURSUIT OF A NOVEL ‘GOOD’ THAT RESONATES ACROSS THE NEW EXPANSE.”
