Product Description
Dressy Bessy, Return To Classic Form This Fall With Their Fabulous Fourth LP Holler And Stomp.
NPR : I think that Dressy Bessy is a far more efficient pleasure-machine than Coldplay. If Chris Martin s voice is earnest and thoughtful, Tammy Ealom s tone is every bit as knowledgable about the vagaries of love and lost and so much more varied and witty in its expression. Ken Tucker
Rolling Stone : Denver s Dressy Bessy are devo-tees of the same kind of retropop sound as Apples in Stereo and the New Pornographers, a hook-y, Sixties-derived jangle filtered through a knowing indie-rock sensibility. - Christian Hoard
Daytrotter : A Dressy Bessy song isn t one without three very important components. First, it must actively enable or invite rump shaking, Ealom is about many more things fashion, a good smoke and exclamation points. Second, it must rely on straight-up, f*ck em all moxie that you get studying the bad guys in old-time Westerns or watching Kate Hepburn own her leading men. Thirdly, they absolutely must give off a glow of older climes. It must feel transported from the cream-colored pages of old Life magazines or Saturday Evening Posts. She s of a vintage blueprint and when she brings guitarist John Hill (also of The Apples In Stereo), drummer Craig Gilbert and bassist Rob Greene into the folds, they make a sound that s aged and cured, but sweaty so you know it s alive. - Sean Moeller
Combining uber-indie sensibilities mixed with bombastic style, the band remains inspirational, hook-laden and upbeat. 13 songs will have you dancing and singing in seconds.
Personal, as well as impersonal experiences over the past few years have helped inspire my urge to HOLLER and STOMP! Tammy Ealom
Driven by vocalist Tammy Ealom and guitarist John Hill (who also moonlights in Apples In Stereo), along with groove-meisters Rob Greene on bass and Craig Gilbert on drums Dressy Bessy bring a sense of style and uniqueness to the rock world.
