A Bad Girl In Harlem

The Denmark trio, who uprooted their lives and relocated to Williamsburg, returns with their new album, A Bad Girl In Harlem. The process of writing A Bad Girl In Harlem proved long and arduous, but ultimately fruitful. The band came out of it with over 60 demos, many inspired by, lead singer, David's new single life. The musicians embraced a greater variety of musical styles, drawing influence equally from punk rock and pop music. The recording process coincided with the songwriting, and in fact a few of the disc's final tracks feature the original demo vocals, which resonate with a more genuine flair than the subsequent takes.

The songs' lyrics, too, were rooted in the musicians' shifting lives and experiences. "Harlem," the album's first single, was inspired a fling David had with a girl from Spanish Harlem, an area he never thought he'd visit. The throbbing rock number captures a boisterous party vibe and marked a turning point in the band's writing process for A Bad Girl In Harlem. Additionally, you will likely recognize "Harlem" from the wildly popular Taco Bell Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Taco TV commercial.
