Darwin Deez Is Pure Fun

darwinA lot of time I find myself caught up in the world of artistry or hype or both, but sometimes, you just want a great pop song.  Something that makes you smile, something undeniable: this is Darwin Deez, and it’s always been Darwin Deez.  He writes infectious tune after infectious tune, coming across like a radio friendly Pedro the Lion.  His newest album, Double Down, is just around the corner with a September 18th release date scheduled by Lucky Number.  I don’t know about you, but it never hurts just to have a little fun with your hits.

Show Preview: Darwin Deez @ Emo’s (2/3)

Date 2/3/11
Location Emos
Doors 9pm
Tickets $8 @ Ticketweb

The incredibly quirky musician known as Darwin Deez is making a stop on the inside stage at Emo’s on Thursday night.  Joining the man on stage are Friends and Stunts.  Bundle up people, cause it’s gonna be could on the walk there!  While you’re at it, check out a video of “Radar Detectors”, as it seems Mr. Deez does not like MP3s of his music floatin’ around the web.

New Tunes from Darwin Deez

It’s so crazy that press releases say Darwin Deez describes himself as part Thriller, part Dismemberment Plan because I swear when I first heard this I immediately thought of my beloved Travis Morrison.  Regardless, Darwin will be releasing his self-titled album on Lucky Number Records April 12th.  I’m not sure why people aren’t all over this, as it’s one of the catchiest albums I’ve heard in a long time.  This is sure to be the hit of the Spring.
