Dangermuffin - "Dangermuffin" Vinyl

For Dangermuffin's debut vinyl record, we've specially chosen a 12" 180g gold-colored vinyl featuring artwork of Icarus, in honor of our first released single, in shimmery, antique gold-foil on a matte-black jacket. Tracks are placed in unique order and differ from Digital and CD track listings.

Dangermuffin’s 2024 self-titled release reaches sunward, elevating the band’s role as a well rooted, unparalleled presence that crosses the borders of Americana, Folk, Jam, and Rock. Recorded in the vast halls of Echo Mountain, a church turned into a legendary recording studio in the heart of Asheville, NC, this collection of songs showcases the band’s continued growth and commitment to their craft. Dan Lotti’s powerful vocals soar through the hallowed rafters of the old church as he sings on themes of light, healing, and growth, while floating on the beachy and breezy sounds we have come to recognize as uniquely Dangermuffin. The recent addition of Andrew Hendryx on mandolin adds a fresh hue to the band’s palette. Hendryx’s colorful style coupled with Mike Sivilli’s lyrical guitar lines, creates a newfound dialogue that propels the band into unexplored territory. At the cornerstone we find the distinct and diverse drumming of Steven Sandifer, providing a comfortable yet firm bedrock for the quartet’s storytelling. This 2024 self-titled release marks a season of synergy and rediscovery for Dangermuffin.

On Icarus, the first single released from the new album, we find ourselves on a winged journey, flying fearlessly towards love and light. “A million stars, a million names, but always one thing remains the same. We are living in the same way, and we’ll die someday.” New Sol takes us on a search for discovery; looking to the sun we find ourselves anew. “I am. I am a new soul. I don’t wanna give up, I don’t wanna grow old.” Iris invites listeners to come and “walk a mile with me,” observing that nature’s beauty is everywhere. “Iris, I see your love is all around.” I Will Not Forget is a voyage into our dreams as we think of those who have passed and how we remember them. “I cannot remember, still I will never forget. I cannot remember, still I will never forget you, forget you.”
