So how do we describe rock n' roll rabble-rousers Dorothy? They're never fail to disappoint on any track that they've released thus far. Their songs and videos are filled with classic rock illusions as we saw in their latest music video "Wicked Ones." They prove that women can rock as hard as men out in the Hollywood scene in Los Angeles and continue to prove this on the new single "Raise Hell," released on radio station KCRW.
Namesake Dorothy Martin is a smoking hot sexy fox, which doesn't hurt their YouTube views as well as the success of their singles in a music industry hungry for the nostalgia of hard rock. Their debut EP was released as a free download by headphone company Skullcandy to great acclaim, with such singles as "Wicked Ones," now featured in Gatorade commercials through the fall and debut single "After Midnight."
In an interview with Rolling Stone Martin said, "You really get the full energy from everybody, because they put their heart and soul into the performance. It's more loose; it's not going to be exactly like the record. There's a lot of energy and vibe."
Music industry website Earmilk covered the beginning of their tour with Miguel, with dates in musical hotspots Austin, Chicago, Boston, New York and Seattle with R&B star Miguel, who handpicked them to join him as the only opening act on his #WildHeartTour after seeing one of their performances at The Satellite in Los Angeles. The group signed to Roc Nation this year and just premiered their new single "Raise Hell" on KCRW, which is already receiving a good response.
In typical Dorothy fashion the track starts off with a resounding ("You can't raise hell with a saint") which is in step with the themes of God and the Devil in many of their releases. It then transitions into ("Young blood / Came to start a riot / Don't care what your old man say") with a steady rock beat, distorted guitar riffs and a resounding chorus of ("Gotta raise a little hell") as they allude to a metaphorical pulling of the rock n' roll trigger.
