Desert Mountain Tribe: International Showcase Fund (Eurosonic 2016)

Desert Mountain Tribe

Establishing themselves in the current psych-rock scene in 2014 with the release of their debut ‘DMT EP1’, the London based trio Desert Mountain Tribe have subsequently proved themselves a formidable live presence after sharing stages with the likes of Toy, Wovenhand, The Wytches and Damo Suzuki. 

Following their first headlining tour of Scandinavia, the Baltics and northern Europe, 2015 has seen Desert Mountain Tribe attract rave notices from the psych community in mainland Europe via appearances at Eindhoven Psych Lab and Lisbon Psych Fest. This has subsequently led to a Europe-wide label deal with the Hamburg based indie powerhouse Membran, who will release the band’s debut album in March 2016 – a simultaneous North American release will be made by Metropolis Records.  The album was recorded during the second half of 2015 and is both expansive and explosive in its musical breadth. 

Desert Mountain Tribe receiving an International Showcase Award from the PRS For Music Foundation is pivotal to bridging the band into what is potentially a much bigger ‘live’ market at a critical stage in the band’s career. The period between recording a debut album and its release date can not only be frustrating but also challenging financially. An invite to perform a showcase at Eurosonic Noorderslag is a major accolade in itself for an emerging band but travel and crew costs need to be met, so to be assisted with the funds to help realize the potential this showcase offers is a fantastic boost.
