The Dammitheads
Alright

unsigned

WE SAY

The Dammitheads are a two piece from Racine, Wisconsin. They're nothing like The White Stripes - apart from the great vocals, superior songwriting, and that superb vitality to their sound. David Tomaloff is the singer, guitarist and main songwriter. Drummer Steve Hawkins came in initially just to help him on the record but now co-writes and joins Tomaloff onstage. Thanks to Pete Ganbarg (Santana's A&R guy for Supernatural and the forthcoming album, and now also the publisher of this song and many others through his indie Pure Tone Music) for bringing it to our attention - it could prove to be quite a discovery.
