Dee Dee from Dum Dum Girls, real name Kristin Welchez, has announced her new musical project as Kristin Kontrol.
Her debut LP will be released worldwide this spring via Sub Pop. Discussing it, Welchez said:
"I wanted to open things up and shed light on significant influences that felt off-limits in Dum Dum land. I don’t want to fight them off anymore. That'd be a drag. The music is so different from anything I've ever done -- I felt compelled to shed the alter-ego instead of trying to morph Dum Dum Girls into something else. I didn't want to mess with that legacy. So yeah, I’m Kristin … and this is Kristin Kontrol.”
