“They tell me it’s been 30 years, but it feels like about six… Maybe seven,” says Courtney Taylor-Taylor of THE DANDY WARHOLS about their upcoming 30th anniversary as a band.  “Well, I guess we’ve had a pretty long run.”

With a career that started in 1994 in Portland, OR, The Dandy Warhols are celebrating an impressive milestone of three decades as a band. With thirteen studio albums under their belt and countless tours crisscrossing the globe, their constantly evolving sound continues to enthrall audiences without losing steam. Their latest critically hailed album ROCKMAKER featured guests Frank Black of the Pixies, Slash of Guns N’ Roses, and Debbie Harry of Blondie and stands as one of their best-reviewed albums to date.

So, to celebrate this landmark, The Dandy Warhols have announced a string of December festivities that include live shows in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, and Tacoma, a fan party in their home studio in Portland, and a co-hosting engagement in which they will co-host as master of ceremonies for the Little Clouds Records showcase (who were responsible for the recent re-pressing of the band’s catalog)!
