The Dandy Warhols

Lead by iconic frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor, the Dandy Warhols are one of pop music's most inspired and musically infectious bands, embodying the wild abandon and hedonist artistry of rock's past. The Portland, Oregon quartet mix a heavy dose of 1960s sounds (from swirling psychedelia to the Velvet Underground) with the smacked-out guitar washes of British shoegazers like My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive. A highly-publicized spat with their colleagues in San Francisco's Brian Jonestown Massacre formed the basis of the acclaimed documentary DIG!, and solidified the Warhols' reputation as one of the most adventurous and enjoyable rock bands of the 1990s and 00s.
