THE DIEMAKERS ARE

Dominic Harris- Vocals & Guitar | Jay Harnish- Bass & Vocals | Sharon Harris- Drums

 The Diemakers are a Rock Band pure and simple. Heavy, Psychedelic, Bluesy, and Soulful. Combining classic influences and a modern vibe into an original, gritty blend of Rock-N-Roll Freedom. 

 

MOTOR CITY SOUND

Legendary sound engineer Jim Diamond of Ghetto Recorders studio in Detroit, Michigan, recorded The Diemakers’ first release, Assault All Your Senses, and their latest release, an EP, Detroit Recordings. Bands such as The White Stripes, The Sights, and The High Strung have recorded with Diamond. The songs were recorded old-school style with the band together in the same room and laying down drums, bass, and the blazing guitar solos in one take. A warm, rich sound was achieved by recording on analog tape, rather than digitally recording. Assault All Your Senses is available on vinyl for those who appreciate the raw, honest sound of vintage records. The band will be going back to Ghetto Recorders in the fall of 2013 to start what will be a full length Album.
