Dum Dum Girls+Crocodiles

What began as a scuzzy lo-fi one-woman show run by Kristin Gundred (“Dee Dee”), expanded to a noise pop project that added textured harmonies to the grittiness. With a classic Motown girl-group feel underneath layers of dreamy distortion, Dum Dum Girls pair unlikely sounds with unflinchingly likeable results. Think Siouxsie and the Banshees’ aesthetic with the Ronettes’ hooks—what’s not to love?
