Songwriter Series: Sonofdov + Rory D'Lasnow

Sonofdov // From post-punk beginnings to melancholy daydreams, New Jersey based singer-songwriter, Dennis King aka Sonofdov, writes hauntingly beautiful music. The kind of songs that “transport us and pierce us”. In 2019 Sonofdov released his first full length, Towers on Mint 400 Records, followed up by EP, Battle Lines. His latest EP Fangs, is a sparse mini series of lost innocence and tangled relationships. Each song becomes illuminated by King's idiosyncratic playing style and emotive vocals.

Rory D'Lasnow // Heralded as a “golden-voiced troubadour” and one of the “32 N.J. bands and artists you need to hear in 2022” by NJ.com, Rory D’Lasnow picked up his late father’s guitar upside-down and backwards at the age of six. Despite never turning his guitar right-side up, Rory’s unique contemplative sound has propelled him on to perform at some of the nation’s most distinguished venues and festivals from Mercury Lounge and Rockwood Music Hall in New York, Hotel Cafe and The Viper Room in Los Angeles, and The Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival in his home state of New Jersey.
