Listen to Sunshine 'N' Spice

Inspired by Dale’s 2017 to 2020 incarceration for a non-violent drug crime, DZD’s most recent full length, “Off The Rip,” dropped in late 2024. Blending groovy reggae influences with a hard hitting rock style, DZD is here to tell raw, ridiculous, and vulnerable stories while thrilling audiences across the country. As Snail describes the genre-bending quartet, “We are storytellers. And when we tell these stories, there are no click tracks, no vocal processing, and no backing tracks. WE PLAY LIVE!” After the three-year hiatus, DZD went to work putting instrumentation and melody behind the lyrics Dale wrote on the inside. Dale also hit up some old friends to be part of the comeback. The result is the current steady stream of dope-ass singles including “This Time” ft. The Elovaters, “Pathological” ft. Bumpin Uglies, “Johnny Freight” ft. Passafire, and of course, “Her Melody” ft. HIRIE. In addition, ska-punk-fan-favorite, “Neighbors,” ft. BALLYHOO! was also finally released on the new 12-song LP, “Off The Rip.” DZD’s obsession with performing live keeps the wheels on the tour van turning across the country. DZD has recently shared the stage with the likes of Sublime, Andy Frasco, Little Stranger, Kash’d Out, Long Beach Dub Allstars, Joe Samba, and Artikal Sound System. High-energy live shows feature vocal harmonies, thick guitar-driven melodies, and fat rhythm section based grooves. And sometimes Snail gets a little crazy on stage too! NEW 🎵 ALL 2025 & 2026 🐌🦓🦓🦓🔒
