Drab Majesty is the solo project of Deb Demure, the androgynous alter-ego of Los Angeles-based musician Andrew Clinco.
Combining elements of post-punk, new wave, and darkwave, Drab Majesty creates a unique blend of ethereal melodies and haunting lyrics. With their signature sound and captivating live performances, they have gained a devoted following in the underground music scene.
Known for their enigmatic persona and striking visual aesthetic, Drab Majesty continues to push boundaries with their thought-provoking music that explores themes of identity, isolation, and existentialism. Their mesmerizing soundscapes transport listeners to another world where darkness meets beauty.

New Wave / Post Punk

Vinyl variants, bonus material and signed editions exclusively available from Rough Trade.

Drab Majesty's first ever release was the 2012 self-released cassette tape Unarian Dances. Originally limited to 100 copies, tracks from this tape would eventually make their way onto the Completely Careless CD collection as bonus cuts. Now, along with the Unknown to the I 12", these songs are finally made available on vinyl in 45 RPM 12" format, bringing all early Drab Majesty material from the Careless era (2012-2015) to vinyl. Mastered by Josh Bonati with beautiful new packaging by Nathaniel Young.

Drab Majesty is the project of Deb DeMure, the androgynous alter-ego of L.A.- based musician Andrew Clinco and partner Mona D. With its combination of reverb-drenched guitars, synth bass lines, commanding vocals, and rhythmic drum machine beats, this project is a stark departure from Clinco’s previous stints as drummer in Marriages and Black Mare. Dubbed “Tragic Wave” and “Mid-Fi” by DeMure, Drab Majesty eloquently blends classic 80s New Wave and hints of early 4AD with a futuristic originality.

A talented multi-instrumentalist, DeMure composes all of the elements of Drab Majesty. However, rather than taking personal credit for the music, DeMure insists that the inspiration for the songs is received from an other-worldly source and that Deb is merely a vessel through which outside ideas flow inward. But Drab Majesty is more than just a musical project — it’s a methodical experiment in the identity of creativity. The character Deb DeMure is an enigma that eludes all expectations of gender and ego. When DeMure’s imposing 6’ 4” figure assumes the stage, Deb’s playful, harlequin-esque appearance, tempered by an ominous body language, and clashing with the dreamy, ethereal melodies comes across as a web of contrasts. The result is a perfect balance between seemingly conflicting messages, between the high and the low, the drab and the divine
