Artist Information
Biography
The members of Dirty Strange emphasize what it means to put on a great live show. While a lot of bands are created in the studio, Dirty Strange was born on the stage. They understand that a live show is where a bands true colors come out or fade away. Their signature is a high-energy rock show that gets crowds moving.
Drummer Adam Van Der Beek happen to see an early rendition of Dirty Strange performing at a popular club in Boston. After they got off the stage, Adam knew he had to be part of the group. Coincidentally around that time, a spot for a new drummer had opened up. Adam's impressive audition with the band landed him the position as the newest member of Dirty Strange.
With Adam on board, the music started to get fine-tuned. With his solid rhythms and style on top of a modern rock foundation from the rest of the band, Dirty Strange's music now has hints of pop sensibility blended with grooves that stay true to the roots of rock.
