The DPRS are...

M.Jacques, B.Quinn, J.Fitzpatrick, G.Jonez
August 2011

Lots of creativty happening right now. Two new songs are under way. A pure pop classic by G.Jonez. Sounding solid, but still so many directions we can go. Not sure of a title...'like james dean'? BQ and I threw one done while the other guys were on break. Mike says it reminds him of Lou Reed, nice one Mike. I'll give more song content later but for now it's called 'through irony and fear'.

We met up last night for press photos and to complete a video treatment, both were a success. Can't wait to tell you more!

SHOW Review - Out of the Box Fest, by Mechanical Forest Sound

Awesome time playing the first ever Out Of the Box fest. Esecially loved playing infront of a large screen displaying god knows, in 3D.

Thanks to Randal Harris for putting this all together and for including us.

Here is a brief description of our set and a photo from our friend Mechanical Forest Sound:

"I was more settled in as Davey Parker Radio Sound took the stage. Playing their first show with a new drummer (welcome to Mike Jacques), the band pumped out a series of snarling nuggets".


















And congrats to our new drummer Hawaii Mike for his excellent live debut with the band. It sounded nothing like a debut.

Hope to see you in a town near you.

i've been waiting

After entering The DPRS into mispace in 06 I quickly discovered The Hoa Hoa's & they quickly became one of my favorite bands. Since 08 it has secretly been my goal to share a stage with these beautiful psychedelic giants but it never happened, until this Friday night. I know it's a fest gig, but its still a major honour to go on right before them. Pop, Drone, Pedals & sonic bloom friends. July 2011 has been amazing.

Out Of The Box Festival + NEW DRUMMER!

Hey ohhhh!
Many thanks for the great night at our debut Horseshoe gig. West coast and east coast fans threw so much love at us. We are still riding high friends. We are already in talks with promoter about the possibility of opening a show this summer with the Agency Group. More info later.

Now on to our next gig this friday....the Out Of the Box Fest. We are most proud to be a part of this one. It is a music and arts festival. Are you ready, here check this out:

We will spill more beans about him later but for now just know that he is straight up solid dude, positive vibes and a fucking serious ass dedicated drummer. We cant wait to see where the DPRS goes from here.
