Lucy Di Santo (frontwoman): “This record deals with where we are today and what we’ve overcome, persevering as a society and as individuals. I found myself as part of a genuinely authentic creative, human experience with Steve and Dan in various geographical locations including NYC, Florida and Toronto and felt the need to document it melodically. It’s about pain, hope, reframing and overcoming. It’s about survival. The songs are an authentic and complete collaboration of the triad and soul connection that is ON”

First single: UNDERDOG

“This is a song about hope, love, angst and dreams. It’s about the temptation to
get back in the ring once more when the world no longer makes any sense and
you have nothing to lose. The accompanying video was filmed by Lindi Gordon
and edited by Michael Gucciardi.”

TUTV: Underdog speeds like a hot rod on the run. No brakes, no breaks, no mistakes.
After all these years it still amazes me how a guitar, a bass, and a drums can enliven your adrenalin production, can accelerate your bloodstream, and can turn your lazy state of mind upside down.

Of course, you need to handle those instruments the way it happens right here, with bravura and perseverance and don’t forget to turn ON the decibels. Add avid riot grrrl vocals and you have a recipe for pogo dancing.

Let the (under)dogs out…
