Our good friends, Slingshot Dakota, will release their next album on Topshelf Records! They are currently recording and hopes to have the album will be out by Spring 2012. Congrats guys!

Slingshot Dakota is broken piano keys, splintered drumsticks, blood, sweat, beautiful vocals, and crazy faces. They write songs about celebrating love (lost and found) and dreams (chased and lived). Influenced by multiple styles of music they were exposed to growing up in the DIY music scene, the music that makes ear drums ring and faces melt with distorted keyboard melodies backed by crushing drum beats. Hailing from Bethlehem, PA, Carly Comando (keyboard and vocals) and Tom Patterson (drums) are brought together by their common love for burritos, bagels, back rubs, endless touring and cute dogs. Whether you’re a seasoned hardcore veteran or a die-hard indie rocker, Slingshot Dakota is guaranteed to find a place in your record collection and your heart!

Slingshot Dakota will launch a short East Coast tour with CT’s The World Is a Beautiful Place and I am No Longer Afraid to Die on January 5th in Wilkes Barre, PA.
