Dananananaykroyd
...Who
you gonna
call?...
This commonly miss spelt, tongue twisting, Glaswegian sextet started life in January of 2006 when members James (drums) and David (guitar)'s former band ‘Multiplies’ disbanded. Railing against the archetypal Glasgow scenester, seemingly intent on standing stock-still at gigs and exhibiting the least amount of enthusiasm possible.. whilst sporting the haircut du jour, studying Franz B-sides and trying their hardest not to smile.. they started making music again.
The resulting Dananananaykroyd (pronounced dana-nana-naykroyd)) is a raucous, in your face (quite literally at some gigs ) double-drummered assault that they like to brand as ‘Fight Pop’
They thrive on the independence that identifies the truest hub of the Glasgow music scene – the bit that, in their own words, allows bands "to do exactly what they want to do, exactly how they want to do it, and always sound amazing at it, regardless of what London tells everyone is cool."
“Forging a new brand of stutter-rock that grabs you by the shoulders and shakes you until you puke” – NME
“A snarling beast of Black Flag-inspired riffs and positive indie-pop vibing” – Vice
“Genius wobble-punk from the Glasgow six-piece with a solid gold pop heart” - NME
