A few tracks we recorded at last night's rehearsal...

During last night's rehearsal, we thought it might be fun to record a few tracks so people could see what we are up to.

After a few false starts with technology we got there - this is the result...it's amazing what you can do with nothing more than an iPad...please bear in mind we are only rehearsing!

Portobello Awaits...

Thursday 22nd August sees The D.Dolls take to the seaside at The Espy.

We will be performing a fabulous set of tunes from the 1930s to the 1950s with a few modern numbers thrown in for good measure.

To make it a bit of an occasion, The Espy is throwing a 'Prohibition Party' with the staff dressed up in Prohibition style costume, drink specials (so we are told) and of course us...OK, technically The Dolls are post-Prohibition, but it is a party nonetheless and we are all there to have a great time.

So please join us at The Espy, Thursday 22nd August 2013.  We start at about 21:00.

Where's The Espy you ask? - click here

PS. don't forget your Prohibition-style costume...we have heard there are prizes for the best dressed.

The Joy of 'Mixed' Weather

Looking outside the window at the moment and into the parking lot at work, it is all looking a bit grey...but The Dolls are not put off by a bit of grey and rain (after all it is Scotland).  So...we will be searching the back of our cupboards and closets for wellie boots and brollies...

According the BBC weather forecast it is...'mixed' - see Saturday's forecast . So please make sure that you come along prepared for a bit of 'mixed' weather. We will have our wellies on...

The weather may be mixed, but we will still be brightening up the street with bunting, singing and a bit of fun...

Aaahhhh...an Edinburgh summer

Well, the weather has just about sorted itself out to a steady state of sun (sometimes), rain (not always), and cloud (mostly).  But that hasn't stopped The D.Dolls forging ahead with summer and autumn plans...see more on our 'FORTHCOMING EVENTS' page.  There's a garden party in store and a gig in Portobello...!
