Bio
If Bryan Ferry from Roxy Music or David Bowie decided to sing with Nirvana or if Franz Ferdinand were a grunge band, that would be Dialtone. Indie rock is the genre they fit in best with, although their music would be at home on alt-rock and garage rock stations too. Paul's driving guitar hooks blend seamlessly with Mike's earnest drum beats and George's melodic bass, while intense vocals and unified harmonies round out Dialtone's performance. Their sound comes from a variety of sources: 60's garage rock bands recorded on duct taped equipment, 80's pop bands standing out in a sea of synthesizers, 90's grunge rockers re-inventing punk rock. But, their sound can be best described as Space Grunge.
