Audra Mae
Since the release of Audra Mae’s acclaimed debut album, The Happiest Lamb, on SideOneDummy Records in May of 2010, the Oklahoma-born singer/songwriter has undergone an exciting transformation. The most obvious change is the presence of her brand new band, aptly named The Almighty Sound. The Almighty Sound is a group of Audra’s close and talented friends including stand-up bassist Joe Ginsberg, guitarist Jarrad Kritzstein, pianist Frank Pedano, back up vocalist Brent Kyle and Chelsea Butts (who is also Audra’s sister). Audra also sought out country star Deana Carter (“Did I Shave My Legs for This”) to help write and co-produce. ...
Gogol Bordello
“With SUPER TARANTA! Gogol Bordello is going to conquer the world,” boasts Eugene Hutz, Gogol bandleader and agent provocateur. “Everything on the album is taken to the next level. It’s more direct, more abstract, more focused, with more dark humor. The dub parts are deeper; the fast parts are faster, its pure orgasmo hysteria.”[slider title="Read More..."]
Gogol Bordello chose producer Victor Van Vugt (Nick Cave, PJ Harvey) to help them bring their extreme vision to vibrant life. “Victor has been a fan since the beginning of the band and we often spoke about making an album together. He’s not afraid to ...
The Sounds
LOS ANGELES, January 6, 2011 — With three albums under their belts, Swedish new wave sensations The Sounds have taken a new approach for their forthcoming album, Something To Die For, due March 29, 2011, making it the first album to be produced by the band. This new chapter also marks a new partnership for the quintet, with Los Angeles-based SideOneDummy Records, who have joint-ventured with the band’s own Arnioki Records. “We could not be more proud to announce The Sounds as our first release of the decade,” offers Bill Armstrong, co-owner of SideOneDummy. “After hearing the new record and spending ...
Anti-Flag
The seventh full-length Anti-Flag release (and first on Side One Dummy) starts off fast and furious with “Sodom, Gomorrah, Washington D.C. (Sheep in Shepherd’s Clothing)” as Chris #2 takes aim at those who use the Bible to control the masses, spitting out the lyrics with an urgency that makes his voice crack. If the album’s second track, “The Economy is Suffering…Let It Die,” isn’t nearly as reckless, it’s just as impassioned, recalling the more melodic moments on those first two albums by The Clash, as Justin Sane weighs in on the government bailouts of 2008, asking “Where are all the ...
Brothers Of Brazil
It’s probably safe to say that you’ve never heard anything like Brothers Of Brazil before. For the past three years the brotherly duo of Supla and Joäo have been making some of the most original songs around by combining elements of traditional Brazilian music such as Bossa nova and samba with rock and funk to create a unique sound that’s won over countless fans in the band’s home base of South America—and now they’re finally ready to expand worldwide with the release of their self-titled album.[slider title="Read More..."]
The duo was started when the brothers got a job hosting their own ...
Fake Problems
Evolution is a naturally occurring force in life, however there’s nothing predictable about Fake Problems sonic journey from underground heroes to indie rock trailblazers. Since forming in Naples, Florida, five years ago the group—which includes vocalist/guitarist Chris Farren, bassist Derek Perry, drummer Sean Stevenson and guitarist Casey Lee—have released two critically acclaimed full-lengths, won over countless fans all over the world and toured and played shows with everyone from The Hold Steady to Frank Turner. However with their sophomore release on Side One Dummy Records, Real Ghosts Caught on Tape, Fake Problems have exceeded even their own lofty expectations by ...
Big D and the Kids Table
Big D and the Kids Table frontman David McWane has said, “There are people who want to be in a band and then there are musicians.” However once in while a group come along who decide to make music simply because they have no other choice—and those are the acts who tend to stick around. For the past fourteen years Big D And The Kids Table have proven that regardless of fame or poverty they will forever be addicted musicians—and their latest full-length Fluent In Stroll is the apex of their decade-and-a-half long career.[slider title="Read More..."]

Bedouin Soundclash
Named after Israeli fusion artist/producer Badawi’s 1996 release ? which pays homage to nomadic Arabic poet tribe the Bedouins ? power trio Bedouin Soundclash formed in 2001 at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. Unlike most musicians who try to mimic their musical idols, Bedouin Soundclash forges their own musical path creating music embodying each member’s personal and diverse musical preferences. With a seductive combination of lead singer Jay Malinowski’s soulful wail and hypnotic rhythmic guitar grooves, Eon Sinclair’s deep dubbing bass, and Pat Pengelly’s driving rhythms, Bedouin Soundclash creates its own innovative fusion of Reggae, Rock, Punk and Soul.

Chuck Ragan
Simply put, they don’t make musicians like Chuck Ragan anymore. For nearly two decades Ragan has traversed the country and the world—first with his celebrated punk act Hot Water Music and later as a solo troubadour—to bring his music to the masses.
Correspondingly, aside from the seemingly endless singles, splits and collaborations, Ragan’s third solo album Covering Ground is as much of a love letter to his transient lifestyle as it is a concession to the loved ones he often has to leave behind and is also undeniably his most honest and accomplished album to date.[slider title="Read More..."]

Bio:
With seven albums under their collective belt and countless tours across the U.S. and Europe,−South America, Japan and Mexico−it would seem hardcore punk stalwarts The Casualties have done it all. But one shouldn’t be so quick to assume anything with these guys who still have much more to bring to the punk-rock scene.[slider title="Read More..."]
To wit, their latest album, We Are All We Have, though full of their signature bracing, high-octane hardcore punk, also features a few surprises. As drummer Meggers testifies, “[It’s] definitely our most ...
Jesse Malin and The St. Marks Social
After three critically acclaimed solo records, dozens of world tours and TV appearances, Jesse Malin found himself back in New York City questioning his next move. From his days fronting seminal hardcore trio Heart Attack and infamous glam punks D Generation, then seven years on the road as a solo artist, Malin had cultivated a devout fan base. He’d shared stages with everyone from The White Stripes to Counting Crows, The Hold Steady to Lucinda Williams, but felt like he was losing the plot.[slider title="Read More..."]
Malin contemplated going back to school, becoming a standup comedian or a Las Vegas wedding ...
Title Fight
Musical trends come and go, but the bands who stick around are the ones who eschew whatever’s popular in favor of playing the music that’s in their hearts—and Kingston, Pennsylvania’s Title Fight are a perfect example of this. Originally formed in 2003 by guitarist/vocalist Jamie Rhoden and the twin brother duo of vocalist/bassist Ned Russin and drummer Ben Russin when the trio were barely teenagers, Title Fight started as a way for these young kids to explore their burgeoning love of hardcore. But after adding guitarist Shane Moran in 2005, something funny happened: Their tireless practicing eventually transformed them into ...
Broadway Calls
Before punk rock became a multi-million dollar business, kids started bands for the sole purpose of expressing themselves and not as a way of attaining wealth and fame. It’s a sentiment that almost seems outdated in today’s commerce-driven music scene, but Broadway Calls have resurrected that bygone era’s vitality and enthusiasm on their new disc Good Views, Bad News. “We’ve always just written songs that we wanted to hear – and that’s definitely true with Good Views, Bad News,” explains frontman Ty Vaughn, who lists classic punk acts like the Ramones and the Buzzcocks, as well as more modern punk ...

The Gaslight Anthem
The Gaslight Anthem have been a band for three-and-a-half years now and in that short amount of time they've become one of rock music's most celebrated acts, spurring a cultish fan base with their original and heartfelt soul-inflected punk. The band recently completed a highly successful headlining tour with sold out shows across North America, including Webster Hall in New York, the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver BC, the Trocadero in Philadelphia, the Bottom Lounge in Chicago and two nights at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ. Their dynamic live show has gained further attention following standout performances at this ...

We Are The Ocean, one of London’s faster growing alternative rock bands, have signed to Side One Dummy Records for North America. The physical version of their critically acclaimed album Go Now And Live will be released on Feb 28, 2012 in North America, with the digital version available today from iTunes and other online retailers.
On Go Now and Live We Are The Ocean deliver a blend of anthemic melodies in the vein of Foo Fighters and Rise Against with undertones of the aggression found in post-hardcore bands like Thrice and Alexisonfire. The BBC raves “Go Now and Live is ...
7 Seconds
When he first started out Kevin Seconds spewed the immortal line, ?I?m gonna stay young until I die.? And two decades later, he?s still practicing what he preaches, as evidenced by Take It Back, Take It On, Take It Over the bands upcoming SIDEONEDUMMY release due out in January 25, 2005, the audaciously titled 13th long-player by his legendary punk band, 7Seconds a band considered by many that came after as pioneers in the movement.[slider title="Read More..."]

Flogging Molly
What makes a band truly remarkable? Insightful lyrics? Memorable melodies? Blow-your-mind live performances? The truth is that it takes all of those things along with a boundless enthusiasm, an infectious energy and a supreme devotion to the fans. With this rare combination, a band may ascend past ‘good,’ or even the record industry’s Holy Grail, ‘marketable’ and reach sublime. Drawing on the hardships and joys of their own lives and a musical history ranging from old world Celtic to modern day punk rock, the seven members of Flogging Molly do just that, and they do it with a charm ...
The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band
Charley Patton might be the single most important figure in 20th century American music. Charley Patton was of mixed race, Black, White, and Native American, which means growing up on the Dockery Plantation in the Mississippi Delta, the state of Mississippi considered him Black. Regardless of what the State of Mississippi labeled him in the early 1900's Charley Patton was American, and maybe the most American of all musicians who have come before or since. You can hear his influence in almost everything. Without Charley Patton there would not have been a Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf, Chuck Berry, Pops Staples, ...
Nathen Maxwell
There comes a time in his life when each and every man needs to express himself, and for Nathen Maxwell that time has come. For the past thirteen years Maxwell has been leaving his heart on stage as the bassist for the seminal Celtic rock band Flogging Molly, one of the biggest touring punk acts in the world. An accomplished songwriter in his own right, Maxwell has contributed songs to Flogging Molly albums in years past, but things progressed differently when the band went into the studio to record Float, their most recent release. “I played these songs for the ...
The Black Pacific
When Pennywise vocalist Jim Lindberg left the band last year after 20 years, nine studio albums, almost four million records sold and countless sold-out tour dates, many people in the music world assumed that would be the last they’d hear from Lindberg for a while. [slider title="Read More..."]
They were wrong.
Almost immediately after leaving the band, Lindberg recruited drummer Alan Vega and longtime friend, L.A. musician Davey Latter on bass, and began to flush out a batch of songs that see Lindberg moving in a more sonically varied direction without abandoning any of the energy and aggression of his previous act. ...
