The Dandy Warhols

American rock band that blends indie, garage rock, shoegaze, psychedelic touches, and dance to brilliant effect.

Biography

Often compared to the druggy psychedelic pop of the Velvet Underground, the Dandy Warhols do possess more than just a passing resemblance to Lou Reed and company at times, but elements of such modern rockers as Love and Rockets and Ride can be detected in their sound as well. Formed in Portland, Oregon, during 1994, the Dandy Warhols consist of members Courtney Taylor, Zia McCabe, Peter Holmstrom, and Eric Hedford. Numerous albums, along with the fascinating documentary Dig!, which chronicled the love-hate relationship between the Dandy Warhols and the Brian Jonestown Massacre, helped to maintain the group's profile well into the 21st century. ~ Greg Prato
