New Zealanders Dion Lunadon (The D4) and Boxcar Benny Maitland had their share of crossed paths prior to forming The True Lovers in New York in 2008. But now they have a band, a saucy, writhing, primal band on heat, and a sound that is burning up the New York winter so much that Dion and Ben are bringing them down to cool off at the BIG DAY OUT before they combust. Like fuck they are – cooling off, that is.
Dion’s 100% rock’n’roll heart always powered The D4’s shows to incredible heights and THE TRUE LOVERS, as their new single ‘Death Threat’ testifies, promise to live up to that reputation. A BIG DAY OUT debut that is sure to be memorable.
