In Episode 80 Derek is joined by Gary and Cbas from West Lothian band Dead Sea Souls.
Dead Sea Souls hail from West Lothian in Central Scotland, their songs and high energy gigs never fail to capture the imagination of each and every crowd they play to. Their working class roots and love of that end of week ‘Friday feeling’ exploding over each and every tune. Dead Sea Souls have built a huge following on all social media sites and an ever growing mailing list, which has helped them play with an ever loyal following in all of the major venues throughout central Scotland.
Gary and Cbas talk about playing together for over a decade. They stormed back into the Scottish music scene in 2019. Two back-to-back SOLD-OUT nights at the world-famous King Tuts in Glasgow made sure of that.
The pandemic may have curbed their ability to play for their fans, but it’s given them time to write and record new material. DSS 2.0 is taking shape!
The new material is bound to please fans new and old, still laden with hooks and anthemic choruses, but also more rounded and considered. This new Dead Sea Souls sound is bigger, more musically aware, but still has that dance DNA……the thing that makes the crowd want to turn up and go nuts!
