The Dolldrums, hailing from Navan, Co. Meath, are a four-piece rock outfit with a keen focus on melody and lyrics. The group was born when the band's frontmen and songwriting partnership returned from a hedonistic summer of excess on a Grecian Isle. The two in question are Paul Clarke and Cormac 'Beef' O' Keeffe. The pair returned weary yet their thirst for music remained unquenchable. They recruited gifted drummer Baz Fitzgerald, (nephew of legendary guitarist Jimi Smith), with whom Beef had played in several bands prior to his departure to Greece. More recently bassist Paddy Smyth has joined The Dolldrums, and despite a broken bone here and a ruptured appendix there, the Dolldrums have hit the ground running. Evolution they say was the creation of no man but a band with a plan.
In an otherwise inauspicious weekend in September '07 The Dolldrums set off to Cherrybomb Studios in Dundalk to record three new songs courtesy of studio time won in a Battle of the Bands in bandit country. Two of these tracks, Magic Car and Ballad of a Wheeler Dealer feature alongside Sarcastic Swipes on the new ep, which you'll find at gigs. The new ep has no name. It does, however, have three rockin' tracks.
With a large local following, one that is increasingly eager to traipse to venues afar, The Dolldrums are keen to spread their wings. So lock up your daughters...the pre-renaissance Navan massive are comin' to town.
