Slingshot Dakota Announce May UK Tour With Petal, Share New Track Grudge
Thursday, 23 February 2017
Written by Jon Stickler
Slingshot Dakota will return this spring for their first UK dates since 2012.
The Pennsylvania duo will be joined by Petal for the eight date run, which kicks off on May 6 at the Deadpunk Special in Bristol before dates in Manchester, Glasgow, Leeds, Nottingham, Southampton, London and Brighton.
The band have also shared Grudge, one of two unreleased songs which were recorded during the sessions for last year's 'Break' LP. The songs make up the 'Broken' EP, a 7" co-release between Topshelf Records/Specialist Subject. Speaking about the track, keyboardist and vocalist, Carly Comando said:
"I wrote Grudge as an ode to all of my experiences in which I have been written off, ignored, spoken over, steamrolled and treated unfairly because of my gender. This song is a way to share this anger with others who feel alienated, whether it's in their music communities or elsewhere, so that we realize we aren't alone. I've learned to cut toxic people out of my life and to spend less energy on situations that make me unhappy, but I am still constantly battling inequality in the scene I spend most of my time in. This song means as much to me now as it did when I wrote it."
