The Doctor Teeeth formed a few years ago in Kent, Ohio with a simple plan: to play straight up rock n' roll like people aren't hearing anymore.
Their songs are raw and energetic, with thick vocal harmonies and powerful, driving music. They emulate their classic rock, blues and folk influences by making fresh, freaked-out rock n' roll sounds that are sometimes haggard, sometimes dirty, but always sweet, just like their Northeast Ohio home. They are as equally disposed to lashing out with heavy guitar-based riffs and heavy jams as they are to playing intimate, ragged tunes with tight harmonies and heady improvisations in the classic power-trio format.
The Doctor Teeeth make heavy, colorful rust belt rock and roll music with a completely populist approach - they believe everyone in the room can be moved by their raw energy and exciting performances, and work hard to get and keep the people's attention. They have a Beatles-esque approach to vocals—as if the Beatles were actually Deep Purple—and the vocals/bass/organ/guitar combination was actually all vocals. This vocal power is tightly bound towards the purpose of real, soulful rock defiance, encompassing equally heavy and melodic influences found in bands such as Queens of The Stone Age or Black Sabbath. The Doctor Teeeth also sight "Kevlar" as a large influence and compare their sound to "honey."
The Doctor Teeeth have opened for many of their favorite and most influential bands, including Wolfmother, Eagles of Death Metal, The Black Keys ,The Sword, Portugal The Man, The Trews, Cage the Elephant and The Buffalo Killers. The Doctor Teeeth are now based in Cleveland and are busy playing to packed houses at such notable venues as The Cleveland Agora, House of Blues, The Grog Shop and The Beachland Ballroom and Tavern. They were nominated by The Cleveland Free Times Music Awards 2008 in the category of "Best Rock Band" and Nominated 2009 for The Cleveland Scene's "Best Rock Band."
