Dorothy

1 festival played

Dorothy Martin's hard-rock vehicle, built on a voice with genuine blues grit — riffs that swing more than they thrash, with a streak of gothic Americana running underneath.

Dorothy is an American rock band formed in 2013, fronted by singer Dorothy Martin, whose smoky, blues-inflected voice sits at the centre of the group's sound. The music leans on heavy, riff-driven hard rock with a strong blues rock foundation, favouring groove and swing over speed, and the band's later work has drawn in darker, gothic country textures alongside the amplifiers.

Martin's writing tends toward themes of temptation, redemption and endurance, delivered in a full-throated style that has drawn comparisons to earlier generations of blues-rock singers. The lineup around her has changed over the years, with Dorothy remaining the constant.
