SLINGSHOT DAKOTA UNVEIL NEW TRACK, ‘GRUDGE’, BEGIN UK TOURWith their anticipated tour of the UK beginning in Bristol tomorrow, Pennsylvanian two-piece SLINGSHOT DAKOTA have released two songs taken from last year’s Break recording sessions. The unreleased songs make up the Broken EP, a 7” co-release between Topshelf Records (US) & Specialist Subject (UK) and its A-side Grudge premieres today over at DIY. Carly Comando, keys and vocals says this of the track: “I wrote Grudge as an ode to all of my experiences in which I have been written off, ignored, spoken over, steamrolled and treated unfairly because of my gender. This song is a way to share this anger with others who feel alienated, whether it’s in their music communities or elsewhere, so that we realize we aren’t alone. I’ve learned to cut toxic people out of my life and to spend less energy on situations that make me unhappy, but I am still constantly battling inequality in the scene I spend most of my time in. This song means as much to me now as it did when I wrote it.” You can catch SLINGSHOT DAKOTA at the Hug and Pint next Monday or on any of their UK dates detailed below, with support from the fantastic PETAL.
