TDS – Indie as we all know stand for Independent it’s started at 80′sand came to limelight in the 90′s. Well many musician have its ownexpression of Indie and when it comes to us we would like to say Indiemusic is very raw and honest music and it quite an experimental andlyrically it gives us something which can’t be express anyway trylistening some www.Reverbnation.com/thedirtystrikes. Thanks youSince the day we first hit the stage we are getting positive vibes yeah negative vibes too truth to be told and yes performing outside ourstate has a different taste recently we played at Bombay now (Mumbai)for Vans fresh off the wall you won’t believe us folks what a crowddancing,singing our songs,trying to get fotos with us and lotsainterview we were welcome like anything like this only wherever weplayed we smile we connect we get new fans.

TDS – Composing songs isn’t easy tell you something we fight for the better of our band and its quite effective lyrically we used to keep as simple as possible so that everyone can enjoy and dance it’s kind of friendly music . The most important part is the look andoutfits yeah we look skinny jeans, chucks shoes, leather jacket, messy hair these is how we represent The Dirty Strikes and everyonelove our simple style and who we are.
