After a massive impact last year with their debut album Priorities, Don Broco have announced their first offering of 2013 will be "Fancy Dress," which will be available exclusively as Google Play's first ever 'Single of the Week' on Jan 14th for one week (link -http://smarturl.it/DBGoogle). It will then be released as a free download to all via Soundcloud on Feb 4th.
Frontman Rob Damiani said "I personally HATE fancy dress parties. They are way too much effort, and after about an hour most people have changed out of what they've come as, and everyone is too wasted to care anyway. This song's about the kind of parties that get a little out of control, leaving you feeling absolutely destroyed after all the fun is over."
2013 looks set to be yet another busy one for Don Broco. Following on from the announcement of their first headline tour 'The Priorities Tour' in February/March '13, the band have so far sold out eight of these shows including the Underworld in Camden in 30 minutes. Five extra dates have been added in April due to the demand including London Koko which has already sold out.
The band have also been given the prestigious title of 'Best New Rock Artist of 2012' by iTunes.
Off the back of releasing their debut album via Search & Destroyrecords in August, the band topped the official rock chart in the UK. Their performances at this year's Reading & Leeds and Download Festival proved to be just the tip of an iceberg in a touring year that's seen them share a stage with the likes of Billy Talent,Lower Than Atlantis, You Me At Six, Young Guns and Four Year Strong.
