Dirty Projectors Biography

Dirty Projectors are a Brooklyn-based experimental rock band led by Dave Longstreth. The band currently consists of Longstreth Amber Coffman (vocals guitar) Angel Deradoorian (vocals keyboard samples guitar bass) Brian McOmber (drums) Nat Baldwin (bass) and Haley Dekle (vocals).
Longstreth's first album “The Graceful Fallen Mango” was released in 2002 under his own name and introduced his distinctive use of song arrangements and his combination of lo-fi and hi-fi production. The album was a project Longstreth began as a freshman while studying at Yale University. With the help of Adam Forkner of Yume Bitsu in 2003 Longstreth recorded and released “The Glad Fact” on the Western Vinyl label under the name The Dirty Projectors. In 2005 the band released “The Getty Address” a concept album about musician Don Henley that features extensive orchestral and choral accompaniment.
The diverse stripped-down “New Attitude” EP followed in 2006 and featured inklings of the band's later vocal interplay and guitar work.
In 2007 the band released “Rise Above” an album of Black Flag songs as re-imagined from memory. The album introduced the band's distinctive contrast between Longstreth's vocals and the harmonies of Amber Coffman and Susanna Waiche who was later replaced by Angel Deradoorian.
