Des Demonas @ The Old Bus Depot with Dead Mint

I've been listening to these a fair bit recently, and finding it hard to place their sound, quite 70's-y, punky, post-punky and funky, with lots of Hammond Organ? I'll post the main blurb below which has more info, but I like it, regardless!

Support comes from local Dead Mint, who I've missed the last couple of times they've played due to clashes, so really looking forward to seeing them again - I've not seem them live since their album (Dead Mint - Album by Dead Mint | Spotify) came out, and it's excellent!

Tickets are £15.60 including fees from:

Washington, DC’s DES DEMONAS have been hailed as a favorite of Henry Rollins (KCRW FM/Black Flag), Marc Riley (BBC6 Music/The Fall), and Iggy Pop (BBC6 Music/The Stooges) since the release of their debut LP on In The Red Records.
The group is made up of some familiar names from the DC punk, garage, and indie scenes. A Kenyan punk-poet-politique Jacky “Cougar” Abok (Foul Swoops, Thee Lolitas) is on vocals & percussion, Mark Cisneros (Hammered Hulls, Kid Congo and the Pink Monkey Birds, The Make-Up) is on guitar, Paul Vivari (Benjy Ferree, DJ Soul Call Paul) is on Farfisa organ and bass machine, and Matt Gatwood (Two Inch Astronaut) is on drums.
Des Demonas’ music is a melding of disparate sounds and influences, hitting with a driving pulse and fiery intent.
“The sonic fuel of the band is a blend of post punk, punk, funk, blues, psych rock, Afro beat, even bubble gum but the noise you hear is pure Des Demonas.”
-Kim Salmon / The Scientists

“Dig the Des Demonas. Play it loud. Twist your wig.”
-Kid Congo Powers
