Dirty Rotten Shame
Dirty Rotten Shame was formed in 2004 by Lisa Rahon and Lauren Hamlin. Lisa, a veteran of the Boston music scene, and Lauren, a veteran of the New Orleans music scene, hit it off immediately. Before long, the collaboration paid off, and the writing began. After some personnel changes, and Hurricane Katrina, the current lineup came together, and is a perfect balance. David Jennings and Will Young are both New Orleans natives and round out this band's musical persona. The band recently contributed 2 songs to the soundtrack of Maverick's recent independent film, "Love and Suicide". The 2 songs (Tell Me and Drown), are perhaps the 2 most haunting on the soundtrack. DRS will also be featured as a showcase band at this year's Cutting Edge Music Business Conference on August 26th at Tucker's in their hometown of New Orleans. Dirty Rotten Shame is starting to create quite a stir on New Orleans' rock scene and with good reason. Their arrangements are complex and their melodies are infectious. DRS has a way of keeping an audience on the edge of their seats, and their stage presence is riveting. Keep an eye and ear out for this band--DRS is changing the face of the rock scene in Orleans, and you're gonna want to be a part of it.
