The Johnny Dowd Band

The new Johnny Dowd album Wake Up the Snakes drops in March. He wil be touring in Europe in May.

We just completed our new record, “Wake Up the Snakes,” which will be released by Munich Records in Europe in March. I'm really happy with the album. It's got a kind of soul/garage vibe, a bit of a throwback to the music I grew up with. The band sounds fabulous. Mike Stark, farfisa; Matt Saccuccimorano, drums; Kim Sherwood-Caso, vocals and guitar (that's right, guitar, and she's killing it); and Willie B on yet another instrument, baritone guitar.

Shows in The Netherlands and the UK have been planned. Cities and venues to be announced shortly.

  • 05/19 Zurich, Switzerland, El Lokal
  • 05/20 Vienna, Austria, Chelsea
  • 05/21 Basel, Switzerland, The Satisfactory
  • 05/22 Neuchatel, Switzerland, Queen Kong Club
  • 05/24 Nancy, France, Festival Musique Action
