Deap Vally: “Get Gone”

By: Jack Anderson

Many KUTX fans first caught wind of Los Angeles rock duo Deap Vally with their 2016 album Femejism. This fierce sophomore full-length highlighted both the individual talents and shared chemistry of Lindsey Troy and Julie Edwards, who have now opened for artists ranging from Red Hot Chili Peppers to Marilyn Manson to Blondie. Troy and Edwards have been writing and touring a heckuva lot on behalf of Deap Vally and so far this year is turning out pretty well for them…

Surprise, surprise! Deap Vally just released one of several sneak attack singles for 2018, a rapid-fire rouser showcasing the alt-garage-punk rock aesthetic we love about DV, “Get Gone“.
