Hardly Art

Dude York is an indie rock band known for their energetic and catchy tunes. With influences ranging from power pop to grunge, they have created a unique sound that sets them apart from other artists in the genre. Their music is characterized by driving guitar riffs, infectious melodies, and introspective lyrics.

Similar to *Summer Cannibals*, *Cayetana*, and *Charly Bliss*, Dude York's music captures the raw emotions of youth while still maintaining a sense of fun and playfulness. Fans of bands like *Diet Cig* and *Remember Sports* will also appreciate Dude York's high-energy performances and relatable lyrics.

With their debut album "Sincerely" receiving critical acclaim, Dude York has quickly gained a dedicated fan base. They continue to tour extensively, sharing stages with notable acts such as *Great Grandpa*, *Bully*, and *Chastity Belt*. If you're looking for a fresh take on indie rock with an edge, look no further than Dude York.

Hardly Art is an independent record label based in Seattle, WA. Founded in early 2007 by Sub Pop Records, Hardly Art is run by three full-time employees and is distributed by the Alternative Distribution Alliance (ADA) and Sub Pop.

With a focus on discovering and promoting emerging artists, Hardly Art has established itself as a prominent player in the music industry. The label prides itself on its commitment to supporting artists who push boundaries and defy genres.

From indie rock to punk, pop to experimental sounds, Hardly Art's diverse roster showcases the best of underground talent. With a catalog that spans across various genres, there's something for every music lover on this innovative label.

The Seattle-based trio Dude York—Peter Richards on guitar and vocals, Claire England on bass and vocals, and Andrew Hall on drums—is announcing itself with an album that couches its themes of anxiety and eroding mental health in rock tracks that amp up the sweetly melodic crunch of power pop with massive distortion and bashed-to-heck drums. Sincerely is a loud,sweaty rebuke to those moments in life when it seems like nothing is working, a testament to the power of friendship, staring problems directly in the face, and finding solace in art. Longtime Sleater-Kinney and Bikini Kill producer John Goodmanson and The Blood Brothers’ Cody Votolato helped Dude York craft a more straightforward draft of Sincerely, one based on the energy of their live show but without any superfluous flourishes.The band’s thoughtful approach to putting together Sincerely's songs echoes the album's overarching themes of almost-punishing inward focus. Bringing England's straightforward drawl into the mix underscores that idea, and its contrast to Richards' excited yelp heightens the tension on Sincerely, a chaotic, yet ultimately triumphant album that's a vital tonic for these increasingly confused times.
