SOHODOLLS Maya Vön Doll Press Release:
Over lockdown a new generation of listeners discovered the back catalogue of London’s electro-rockers Sohodolls. Their song Bang Bang Bang Bang went viral through a TikTok challenge in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. This catapulted them to number 36 of the USA and 6 in the Russian viral charts. The band believe the song’s lyrics about feeling socially awkward and ‘not quite the norm’ together with a nod to the goth and electro underworld of Soho is what has connected with millenials.
As the band’s singer Maya von Doll explains ‘I noticed that during L1, Stripper was getting a lot of attention from teenagers way before Bang Bang Bang Bang did. A Texan influencer posted that she couldn’t believe a band from the noughties had written a song about Strippers that wasn’t remotely sexist nor chauvenistic’. It made her proud of what the band had achieved all those years ago. So when their other albums blew up on Spotify earlier this year they got an email from our their old record label asking if they wanted to get into bed with them all over again. Hence since February the band have been releasing new singles every 2 months. And in preparation of the inevitable live shows Maya von Doll will be doing a very select handful of UK PA sets featuring ‘only the hits!’ .
