SXSW 2017:

“I’ll be out trying to snag as much vegan junk food as I can, and start a food blog” - Doe talk SXSW

We caught up with the London trio on their #roadtoSXSW to talk preparations.

“I’ll be out trying to snag as much vegan junk food as I can, and start a food blog” - Doe talk SXSW
Doe’s music is more than slightly indebted to America. From the crunch of Weezer to Sleater-Kinney’s slippery melodies, the London trio - vocalist Nicola Leel, guitarist Dean Smitten and drummer Jake Popyura - take a heavy slice of influence from the fuzzy rock of the States in the ’90s, and now make their way over to Austin with debut album ‘Some Things Last Longer Than You’ in their back pockets. Lyrically, the record is vicious and cutting, with this anger hidden under walls of distorted guitars and sugary choruses.
