Dancethink Music: What started as a concept for My Dear Disco is quickly becoming a full-fledged movement surrounding them. Hailed as, “. . . one of the must see acts in Detroit and Ann Arbor,” (The Detroit Fashion Pages), their high-energy blast of funky, soul-healing electro-rock is stirring up a buzz that leaves critics saying, ” My Dear Disco is the next act from Michigan to have a big commercial breakthrough.” (The Detroit Free Press).
Just a year out of college, the band has already put over 35,000 miles on their veggie vehicle, including a tour of Alaska, three showcases at SXSW (Austin, TX) and prime slotting at national summer festivals including Wakarusa, 10,000 Lakes Fesitval, Moe.down, Hookahville, Bella Madre, Kentuckiana Pride, and The Alaska State Fair. Lately, even the folks in Television have caught on offering the band a featured performance on Fox Network’s Fearless Music Television, and placement of their track “My Dear Disco” in a Melrose Place promotional commercial.
Their savvy in the studio is as strong as it is on-stage. Although largely self-produced, Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum producer Mark Saunders took their debut album, the Dancethink LP, under his wing for the finishing touches; giving it the same magic touch he was responsible for on The Cure’s Wish, Shiny Toy Guns’ We Are Pilots, Tricky’s Maxinquaye, David Byrne’s Feelings.
