The Dig: Electric Toys


We've been following this solid rock and roll band for awhile now, and we're extremely excited for their upcoming debut, Electric Toys, due April 27th. It was produced by Bryce Goggin (Pavement, Antony & the Johnsons, The Ramones, Bishop Allen), and features their new single "You're Already Gone" above. It should be great to watch these Berklee grads continue their success this year as they hit the road with Port O'Brien and Portugal. The Man after their current tour with a few small bands called The Antlers and The Editors. This is straight-ahead, catchy, rock music played by a band that makes no excuses and isn't afraid to play the hell out of their instruments. It's refreshing and welcome. Tour dates after the jump.
