Pitchfork: Dressy Bessy Jump Start Tour

The most vibrantly-attired band in Denver (and possibly the world), Dressy Bessy, are blazing a fashionably conscious and infinitely danceable trail through the American West beginning tonight. It's what you lay-persons might call "touring" or possibly "gigging", except Tammy Ealom and friends always do it with impeccable style. Keen!

Dressy Bessy deal in hook-tastic, retro-leaning guitar pop, seldom deviating from their winning formula. While some may be inclined to yawn at this, the rest of us are content to dance it up, wantonly. So catch Dressy Bessy as they shimmy through your town, where they will doubtless rummage through the racks at all the local thrift shops and then maybe play you a show.
