Flying into the Northern Virginia music scene at an intangible speed is Diesel Pigeons. With polar opposite influences (ranging from pop punk to metal to blues) this quartette has managed to create a synth-driven force blasting to the top of our radar. They’re so good, in fact, that they are the first ever winners of Syke’s Band Of The Month Voting Contest!
After coming together a little less than three years ago, Diesel Pigeons have put in some long hours not only making music but assembling cd’s, promoting, booking, and generally working their way up. Despite the fact that they all “dabbled in other projects” before this one, they feel that DP is really their “first legit band,” and their authenticity shines through in their first two CD’s – “Sucker” (2008) and “Triple Word Score” (2009). Their music is sort of like a genre-buffet in the sense that you get a little bit of everything; just when you want to classify them as another pop-punk band they throw in some classic rock guitar riffs and rap-infused vocals.
Love,
DP
FAQ's
So, whats with the name?
Evan had a little fun with an online random word generator one day, and put two random words together. But the name stuck, and its not exactly one you forget...
When you guys talk to me on MySpace, is it really you?
Of course it is!!! One of the lamest things a band can do is have some robot add all their friends for them, and send them out all the same message. We try to find some common ground with our fans, and like to talk to them about it!
You guys are pretty much a DIY band; But what does the mean?
That basically means we do it all ourselves. What is "all"? Everything. We promote ourselves heavily, design our own merch/album art/myspace layouts, and we even hand make every copy of all our CD's! Now THAT'S dedication!
Where can I find your guys' music? I just gotta have it!!
Well fear not! Our brand new CD is now available on iTunes, AmazonMP3, Napster and CDBaby! You can also pick up a physical copy at one of our shows, or order one from CDBaby as well!
One last question: How can I, the fan, spread the word?
Whatever way you can! Set one of our songs as your profile song/put us in your top friends/send out a bulletin about us/put our songs on a mix CD/make some home-made T-Shirts/any other crazy shenanigans you can think of! We love when our fans get creative! Creativity gets a gold star! You can also use this nifty banner that our rad friend Will made for us!
