BREAKING NEWS: Yesterday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced the Senate will stay in session for the first two weeks of the scheduled 5-week August recess.

This is a positive sign that Congress intends to begin delivering on some long-awaited promises, but now the Senate needs to hear from you: The Senate must work towards repealing Obamacare, not bailing it out!

Obamacare is failing, and it cannot be bailed out. Liberals have no interest in lowering premiums through competition and choice -- they just want more government. Republicans promised to repeal and replace Obamacare for seven years. The initial Senate bill contained meaningful changes that would have improved upon the status quo of Obamacare, and now conservative Senators are fighting for even more changes. It is time for action, not excuses and bipartisan bailouts.

Earlier this month, some suggested Republicans may work directly with Democrats to bail out Obamacare. We cannot let this stand.

We can’t let liberals and moderates stand in the way of the Senate rolling back Obamacare and making real progress on reforms that will increase choice and lower costs.

Bailing out Obamacare is not an option. Senators must use everything in their power to repeal the Obamacare taxes, to make substantial reforms to Medicaid, and to give states the ability to opt-out of the most harmful regulations of Obamacare.

Call your Senators today to tell them it is time to act! Call Now!

THE DULL BLUE LIGHTS

EXCLUSIVELY STREAM

SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM

WITH EAST OF 8TH

 

LISTEN HERE

 

ALBUM OFFICIALLY OUT ON 7/13

 

RELEASE SHOW AT THE BARBARY IN PHILADELPHIA

 

"Philadelphia's the Dull Blue Lights let reggae and Motown undertones pervade their grooving new single." -Popmatters

 

 "The Dull Blue Lights have a sound that is all soul with a bit of psychedelic pop and reggae thrown in." -AXS

 

"These guys are stronger than ever and ready to kick some serious ass with their blazing rock and roll." -Glide Magazine

JULY 12, 2017 - PHILADELPHIA, PA - The Dull Blue Lights are streaming their self-titled debut album with East of 8th a day ahead of its official release tomorrow, 7/13. Listen HERE. Featuring all-analog recording, The Dull Blue Lights was tracked live in five consecutive 12 hour long sessions at The Bomb Shelter in NashvilleTN with producer Andrija Tokic (Alabama Shakes, Hurray for the Riff Raff, Benjamin Booker, Clear Plastic Masks). To celebrate the release, the band will be playing a hometown show on Thursday night at the Barbary in Philadelphia. For more information, please visit: https://www.thedullbluelights.com/.

The Dull Blue Lights are a band in between. Drawing from influences as varied as Motown soul, Nuggets psychedelia, and Jamaican rocksteady, the Philadelphia-based group's definitive blend of cascading harmonies, screaming guitars and relentlessly grooving rhythms lives somewhere between each one. The band calls this in-between sound Basement Soul.

"We acknowledge that genre exists, but have no interest in confining ourselves to being just a soul band, or a mod band, or a reggae band, and on and on," lead vocalist/guitarist, Todd Fausnacht, explains. For the band, any type of music they enjoy can become part of the Dull Blue Lights Sound. "For us personally, coming from a scene full of vintage throwback bands, it's a refreshing change."

Formerly known as The Snails, The Dull Blue Lights transformed immensely during the writing of their debut album. "When we started writing this record, we were one band, but by the time we finished recording, we were a different band entirely," Fausnacht elaborates. "We unintentionally told a story of transformation and metamorphosis, which ultimately ended with us becoming The Dull Blue Lights."

The Dull Blue Lights are Todd Fausnacht (lead vocals/lead guitars), Ben Parry (bass/vocals), Tim Hildebrand (guitar/vocals), Matt MacLeod (organ/vocals) and Josh Parry (drums/vocals).
