About Dressy Bessy
Dressy Bessy was formed in 1997 in Denver, Colorado, during a chance meeting between singer Tammy Ealom, bass player Rob Greene and original drummer, Darren Albert. Soon after, The Apples in stereo guitarist John Hill joined the band. 1999 saw the release of the Dressy Bessy's critically acclaimed debut Pink Hearts Yellow Moons, immortalized in director Jamie Babbit's indie classic film "But I'm A Cheerleader."
2003's Dressy Bessy caught the ear of John Peel resulting in a Dressy Bessy performance at the BBC for Peel's legendary Peel Sessions. In 2005, Ken Tucker reported for NPR on Dressy Bessy's Electrified album in a head-to-head review with Coldplay's X&Y. Tucker proclaimed Dressy Bessy a "much more effective pleasure machine..."
The New Album ~ KINGSIZED ~ is out February 5, 2016, on Yep Roc. The first single will be released on Black Friday Record Store Day and features Peter Buck and Mike Mills of R.E.M. fame.
