Madman In The Rain, the brand new full length from Washington DC’s Dot Dash, is out now on The Beautiful Music, the album is the Ottawa based label’s 54th release. Recorded at New York City’s Renegade Studios and produced by Geoff SanoffMadman In The Rain features a dozen new Dot Dash songs. 

“Everything we’ve ever read about Dot Dash plays up the group’s collective resume: Singer/guitarist Terry Banks was in St. Christopher and the Saturday People before teaming up with bassist Hunter Bennett in acclaimed indie-rock band Julie Ocean and drummer Danny Ingram co-founded harDCore band Youth Brigade. Very impressive. But we’re more interested in the music, a retro cocktail that recalls the yearning indie-pop of Sarah Records; the ’80s neo-Byrds jangle of R.E.M., Orange Juice and other seminal college radio artists, and tight, throbbing basslines and slashing guitars that evoke the Jam and the Clash.” (Washington Post)
