Los Angeles-based duo Bitter:Sweet release their sophomore album Drama (Quango) in June 2008 via Fontana/Universal. Drama is the highly-anticipated follow-up to 2006’s critically-acclaimed The Mating Game. Drama is a richly textured exploration that pushes Bitter:Sweet in new sonic directions, while retaining the lovable rhythms and hooks that brought them to the forefront of electronic music. From the jazzy, dark “Drink You Sober” to the dream-like voyage of “A Moment” to the intense, luscious hook of “Waking Up,” Drama highlight’s Shana Halligan’s dexterous and impassioned vocal capabilities and Kiran Shahani’s keen ear for cadence and production.
“The Bomb,” the first single off Drama is already garnering national attention as the theme song for NBC’spopular television comedy, “Lipstick Jungle.” Drama captures the band’s live show and their ability to simultaneously conjure vintage and forward thinking sounds, all while showing off the dexterity and accessibility of their music. http://www.myspace.com/thematinggame
