Hailing from the streets of New York City, The Dirty Pearls deliver their stories of sex, drugs and rock n' roll with catchy hooks, intelligent lyrics, and bravado reminiscent of 70's era rock. Many of their fans have dubbed them "The Supergroup Of The East Village", since The 'Pearls consist of former members of strong local acts (The Sex Slaves, Great Jones, Drag Citizen) and due to their sellout performances throughout New York City.

The Dirty Pearls high-energy live shows are full of raw electricity that will make your heart pound, your feet tap and if you don't leave a singing a Dirty Pearls song, then you were never really there at all!

Their self-produced six-song CD is available at all their shows as well as on cdbaby.com, iTunes, Myspace and many other digital retailers.

In just a couple years' time, New York City's Electric Shadows have evolved seamlessly from fledgling powerpoppers to top tier glammy rock n' rollers. Taking inspiration from the likes of the Stones, Flamin' Groovies, Dictators, and Hollywood Brats, the Electric Shadows revisit the raunchy rock n' roll of the pre-punk years (pinched with a little Raspberries/Big Star pop flavor), with songs that feature smokin' guitar soloing and boogie-down riffs. Singer/guitarist Murat (backed by the rock solid rhythm muscle of bassist Brian and drummer Dolan), an obvious disciple of the Ronnie Wood school of cool, can flat-out play—without forgetting about the importance of tunefull & timeless songwriting. The 'Shadows have been honing their live chops in every club in New York City (not to mention the rest of the country) for the past 4 years—and their infectious and explosive live energy is not to be missed. Look our for a freshly recorded debut album in the summer of 2008!
