The Dammitheads are a rock and roll entity about as alternative as The Clash. While the name seems to allude to a group of people, it actually serves as the creative writing/recording vehicle and schizophrenic alter ego for one otherwise begrudgingly titled singer/songwriter named David Tomaloff.
“It’s not exactly the way I’d have planned it,” admits Tomaloff AKA The Dammitheads, “I mean, I’ve always thought and written in terms of the great rock and roll ‘band’ as an entity. Somehow, though, it’s a bit more interesting this way and the vision seems to remain a lot more true.”
Eschewing the prototypical singer/songwriter banner of the given name for the statelier aesthetic of the whole, The Dammitheads are a strange contradiction that refuses to be defined by today’s oft too matter-of-course musical precepts, currently performing live in various incarnations including full-on band, drums/guitar/vocal and, yes, even solo.
