Emerging from Liverpool’s DIY scene, DBA! slither between lo-fi indie rock and fractured psych-folk.

Their sound isn’t about precision - it’s about atmosphere, texture and a vocal tone that feels like it’s drifting in from a neighbour’s house party. 

Their latest single ‘D.P.D.’ is a woozy knee-tapper, built on lo-fi tension and a guitar palette that flickers between slacker rock looseness and post-rock unease. 

Slide guitar cuts through the murk with warped tenderness, wrapping around frontman Sam Warren’s stream-of-consciousness delivery. “It’s a deep cut from the world slipping through my fingers”, Warren says, “a song I’m not sure I understand but can’t help myself loving”.

It’s not a song built for resolution - it drifts and it knows it. DBA! are less interested in answers than in the feeling of circling the edge.
