Dancehall combine the intensity of Fugazi and Sonic Youth with the melodicism of Blur and the throb of LCD Soundsystem

Few bands are as capable of being as direct and effective as Dancehall.
The London/Kent-based trio who formed in 2016, run on a mix of egoless
ambition which has seen the band relentlessly self-release a collection of
singles bristling with distorted energy via cassette tapes and 7′ records on
their own Vibe/Anti-Vibe label. Debut 7′ single ‘Vs & Gs’ documented their anxious presence in the capital,
rejecting thick slick adverts in favour of escape, with lead singer Timothy
screaming ‘I’m ready/To blow!’ over the thumping verge of a panic attack. Since
their bedroom demo originals, Dancehall work completely collaboratively, each
member bringing ideas together and working on the songs at their practice
space in Limehouse to create a mix of songs that represents their musical
heroes influence on the members: from DIY punk trailblazers Fugazi and the
harnessed noise of Sonic Youth, to the driving melancholy of LCD Soundsystem
and the less-cited catchy balladry of the B-52s and Blur.
