Band Bio
"All the instruments are sublimated to the total sound of each
composition, all directed towards a single effect, so it’s hard to single
out individual performances; the highest praise I can give the musicians,
in fact, is that one doesn't so much hear the specific instruments as
grasp the totality of each piece."
-Gerald Wandio of Dutch Progressive
in 2006, dirt jake replicas,a newly formed group consisting of five
strangers from all four corners of the united states, began writing 12
minute art rock epics that have been said to be "fantastically original!;
Beautiful, dramatic, dark, climatic and fiery.;(music ) that causes me to
reflect upon myself and exactly what it is I am doing in this life." (Alex
Romero-Rock Alaska Records; Rachele - Pdxpole; Soup - Crave.)
dirt jake replicas have already received e-mails from countries such as
Finland, Mexico, The Netherlands, Quebec, Brazil, Indonesia, and the UK
asking for permission to use their music in radio programs. in a response
to the attention they have gained from these countries, they have decided
to do a 21 date spring tour through the entire United Kingdom, which they
are currently planning all on their own. this june tour will be in support
of their debut self-titled cd, that was released in October of 2007. the
71 minute disc was recorded, mixed, and mastered in Seattle, WA with
producer Brin Addison (smashing pumpkins, chris cornell, smashmouth,
indigo girls). the whole process was completed in just ten quick days and
was again setup, financed, and released all by the unsigned band.
but if planning an overseas tour and recording their debut cd was not
enough, dirt jake replicas have decided to take it a few steps further.
within this year they plan to release an EP in summer, a DVD in fall, a
full length follow up to their debut album in autumn, and also setup a
special return home concert with a 30 piece choir! Please contact info@dirtjakereplicas.com with any questions or info.
thank you.
