Welcome to the Dubs in 2012

BIG, BIG NEW ALBUM NEWS

NEW YOUNG DUBS ALBUM PLEDGE DRIVE

As many of you know we have been hard at work writing our new album but this time we have chosen not to go with a record label.

There are many reasons for this decision but the most important one is that we want total creative freedom and control for the first time in the band's history. The recording industry has gone through a massive change in the last few years and we feel it is now better for us to become ''independent'' and release the album we want to release in the way we want to release it.

However we can't completely ''go it alone''. Please CLICK HERE to read on.

Next up for the Dubs

2012 is already looking like a very busy year here in Dubland. We will be releasing a new album, touring all over the US and returning to Europe. Thats the official plan, who knows what will really happen!!

Check out the dates and make your plans now to come see us play. Just click here Tour Page.

Make Up Date

We return to Fairbanks on Feb 10th and 11th to make up for the missed show. But for now its back to the album work.

Our Friend, Alan In memory of Alan Hirano
- Musician, Producer and Dear Friend.


On Thurs Jan 15th, 2009, our good friend Alan Hirano passed away. Some of you may have met Alan at our acoustic Muldoons shows when he was doing sound for us. He was a kind, loving soul and we will truly miss him. Here is a picture of Alan on a night out with Dave.
Rest in Peace Al.
