The Dears - Whites Only Party
[V2]

Surly and serious on the outside, but this six strong Montreal outfit have demonstrated with their three albums so far that this veils an appreciation for range and rhythm, making for the perfect forum for their dark lyrical edge.

‘Whites Only Party’ is the second single from the recent ‘Gang Of Losers’ album and it has seen The Dears become the subject of more features than Wayne Rooney. This song encapsulates the sprightly musical prowess and peeved edge that has gained them this recognition.

Singer, Murray Lightburn’s soulfully sure touch, toes along the jazzy guitars and Natalia Yanchak’s high profile keyboard pitch and is topped off by some stroking percussion. Thus revealing assuredness and an endearing underdog element;

‘We ain’t here to steal your women at least that wasn’t planned.
There’s that closet smell think you’ve bin inside their too long.”

Through a The Stone Roses' style gang mentality The Dears are finding a way of reaching out.
