Down The Lees' highly anticipated EP, 'Dirt', is out everywhere now! Featuring the award winning single, 'Douse', which has already taken home 'Best Song' at the 2024 Okanagan Screen Awards, the EP knows no genre constriction and is a true showcase of Down The Lees' broad sonic strengths – putting a spotlight on their range and versatility. This one sounds a bit like Radiohead goes metal with a duet included (with Laura Lee Schultz).
On the release, bandleader / founder Laura Lee Schultz comments:
"As the next phase of Down The Lees started to unfold, I was lucky to be able to find musicians so talented and passionate about this type of music. Hard, abrasive, melodic and dare I say, beautiful at times.
Playing with Chris and Andy is full of feel - which is what every band wants, a connection that is hard to describe but you can hear it and feel it. I bring the skeleton of a song to the band and we finish it together. Recording this EP with Jesse perfectly captured what we had hoped to achieve and we are so happy with the result. We recorded these songs in a very natural, unforced way as we get each other’s musical references and know where the song ideas want to go."
