too blues to be punk
too punk to be blues

Two musicians, three instruments, zero guitars: The DeadBeatz are the most compressed blues-punk band in the world, with the energy of two V8 engines!

Not only do the two Austrians do without a guitarist. They have also opted for the anything but ordinary combination of harmonica, double bass and drums. Thereby David Karlinger operates the gunpowder mainly with his feet, while he is busy on the harp. Bernie Miller is responsible for bass and lead vocals. The result is a straightforward groovy mix of blues, punk and a pinch of rockabilly.

While they’ve made every crowd dance live so far, the rockers focused on producing a new album during the pandemic. „Meet Us At Dawn“ is the name of the new long player, on the punk rock label SBÄM Records. Meet Us At Dawn will be in bright red and blue not only visually an eye-catcher: David and Bernie worked with various producers and songwriters to exploit the full range of their sound. Thus, the quiet blues number „Oh Evening“ stands in stark contrast to songs like the stompy rock n roll song „Cold Nose Bleeds“.DeadBeatz, that’s two of a kind and it’s pretty powerful – hopefully they’ll soon be back on your bikes to race onto the stages of this world!
