Condom Pocket

Young, intelligent, and powerful, Brooklyn based Condom Pocket combines the intensity of '90s grunge with haunting electro/synth hooks that make their music unmistakably modern. Yet to cut a studio track, the band survives on acoustic demos recorded by singer/songwriter Mike Dooley in his Crown Heights apartment. "We're happy to be DIY for as long as necessary," says the band. "A good song will always be a good song, production is secondary." The catchy, emotionally-driven lyrics built atop a powerful rhythm section finds Condom Pocket making as much sense on the stages of New York City's best dive-bars as on your headphones in your bedroom.
