Art to play solo acoustic sets

Tired of the bleak, Dubiousless existence you've been enduring since George left?

Well, sigh no more: lift (and drink) your spirits with a solo acoustic holiday set from Art!

Friday, December 21:

Miss Art's Black Friday set with CMT at Lilly's? Hit The Note for another acoustic set and learn the true meaning of "Bah, Humbug!" (Here's a hint: it's nicotene withdrawal.)

Check out the live page for details.

George Manolis departs for Brookyln

It is with great sadness that we announce the departure of our friend and Dubious Moniker drummer George Manolis on September 1st. George is heading to NYC to become a full time member of Slaves. We'll have more on how this will affect DM in the weeks to come. For now, sit tight; we're in the studio.

Double Door Photos Online!

Huge thanks to everyone who made it out to the show at Double Door April 7! As always, we can't tell you how much your support means to us.

If you were there, you might find a candid shot of yourself over on our Photos page. Also, keep an eye on this site for audio and video recordings of the set, which we'll upload in the coming weeks.

Rusty Pipes

Extra special thanks to Tyranny Belle's own Rusty Pipes for opening the night with a bang (and twang). Pipes -- who continue to fight against oppressors of the working man with hard-hitting punkabilly rock -- are currently in the studio recording a new full-length album. They're also one of Chicago's finest live acts, so check them out posthaste.

Subterranean Monday, May 7

If you couldn't make it to Double Door, don't fret. Dubious will play an intimate, full-band acoustic set in the downstairs lounge of Subterranean Monday, May 7 at 8 p.m.

Thanks again for your support, folks. We couldn't do any of this without you. See you soon!

Dubious Live at Double Door
Saturday, April 7

Dubious Moniker will return to Double Door for another headlining gig Saturday, April 7!

Openers include Life Number Nine, Nick Zepp and Chicago's finest rockabilly punk band, Tyranny Belle's own Rusty Pipes! Pipes take the stage at 9 p.m. sharp, so be there on time if you wanna get piped.

This will be a special show for Dubious fans, as we'll be unveiling brand-new songs all night long. We've been working hard on these babies and think you'll like 'em.

Be sure to print out the ticket below (click it; it's a link) and bring it to the show. It saves you $2 at the door and lets Double Door know that you came to see us.

Hope we see you there!

Happy Birthday, Thomas Bamford

My brother Tab and his wife Kristin had a baby! Thomas Matthew Bamford was born Feb. 23rd. I thought it'd be fun to record a cover of the song "Whistle your Blues Away" (by Andrew Winn) for the little guy. Peter C. recorded and produced the track at BillyDog Studios. Enjoy!
