Dilly Dally’s music likely will remind you of the ’90s alternative heyday that the Pixies and Nirvana ushered in.
Hailing from Toronto, childhood friends Katie Monks and Liz Ball formed the band about seven years ago. The ’90 comparisons are pretty apparent: Hole, Breeders and other female-led bands. Yet this group’s music is several notches above the many other current bands that nod to the era of “alternative.”
Dilly Dally also is very good and the band’s debut album, Sore, (released in October) is recommended.
Dilly Dally is the middle act at Empty Bottle Wednesday. Fat White Family is the headliner.
