DC Dolls interview!

DC Dolls have been creating a buzz in Dublin's music scene for a couple of years now. With battle of the bands, a slot at Electric Picnic festival, a debut EP featuring songs about prominent figures in feminist history and a fierce sense of community, it was only inevitable that the Irish punk rockers would start making waves.

In the runup to releasing his next EP, Music For Making Friends, Haich dropped by the Yellow Brit Road to talk new music, collaborations, cinematic albums, transcending genre, correspondence from camp Iggy and his latest single, Have You Given Up?This one's a good chat, listen on.
