Oi Oi/Soft Lad | Single | 2014 |
A sense of urgency drives their Down-to-Earth rhythms and infectious melodies, giving Doodah Farm their musical DNA.
The first murmurings of creative energy came when Stevie Myler got himself completely sober for the first time in his adult life and when he bumped in to old friend Mark Dickinson they started playing their own material as a duo. Soon it became clear that two was not enough and a traditional band line-up was the answer, so they recruited Joe Lamb on mandolin/ukulele and Matt Deaves on drums to provide the dancing beat that the boys needed to propel their rockabilly folk-pop anthems.
With the final piece of the jigsaw falling into place, Doodah Farm emerged as a quartet with four distinct talents and no egos.
After playing a handful of shows in late 2013 around the north west at venues including; Zanzibar, The Cavern, Night and Day Café and Milo Bar, Doodah Farm were named “best new act” at the Liverpool Musicians Awards in March 2014.
A hectic summer of live shows cumulated in a main stage performance at Liverpool Pride supporting Katy B in front of 15,000 people.
In August the lads headed into the Motor Museum studio (Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, Jake Bugg and Tea Street Band.) with award wining producer James Mellor to record their debut single Oi Oi/Soft Lad. The double A-side was released October 31st.
