New York, NY (Top40 Charts) After a landmark headline show at the iconic Dingwalls in Camden to finish 2018, Dirty
Orange are set to release blistering new single 'Hellraiser'.
Hailing from South West London, the four-piece are touted as 'Ones To Watch' in 2019. Despite all releases to-date being self-recorded demo's, the band already has a string of sold-out UK shows to their name, having built a word-of-mouth following as somewhat of an enigma. Their first studio release, 'Hellraiser' has been produced by Wolsey White (Hard-Fi, 2 x UK #1 albums) at Richard Archer's Cherry Lips studio.
George Wilkins, frontman of Dirty Orange, says: "To put it plainly, the song was inspired by the late great Lemmy Kilmister and his fans. To me, he epitomises 'Hellraiser', a live by your own limits attitude, yet without glamorising it. He's as truer Rockstar as you'll find and was a huge character. The music scene is a much lesser place without him."
"Working with Wolsey White on the single was an incredible experience. We chose to record 'Hellraiser' because we felt it had the elements to become a great song, and over the course of the process with Wolsey it soon became apparent we were onto something."
The release coincides with a run of UK dates, including a headline show at the infamous Water Rats London on February 23rd, and shows in Leeds (sold out), Manchester and Birmingham, before the band move into a busy festival season with slots at Camden Rocks, Tramlines and The Great Escape already confirmed among others.
