| Pat Todd and crew update some of their fave David Johansen & Johnny Thunders tunes for their "After The Dolls" 6-song EP. |
Here's the scoop from Heavy Medication Records...
We’re kicking off 2026 in grand fashion with the new :After The Dolls" six song 10” EP from Pat Todd and his rockin’ Rankoutsiders which will be out January 9th. On it, Pat pays tribute to two members of one of his and our favourite bands -- Johnny Thunders and David Johansen of the New York Dolls – by covering six of their post-Dolls songs.
Here’s what the man himself has to say “ …this record is something I’ve been wanting to do for 20 years or so but never seemed to have the time to record - to me, The New York Dolls are in the pantheon of all time greats, right along with Dylan, the Stones, Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters, the Velvets, etc. – and just like those people, I thought Johansen & Thunders wrote many great songs after what is thought of as their prime period - the Rankoutsiders started this record way before we knew that David Johansen was ill, and we finished it after his death - I personally owe David and Johnny a lot for all the inspiration & love I got out of their music & being - for me they will always be around…..”
Pre-orders are open now! Head over to our Bandcamp page and check out "Wreckless Crazy," one of the David Johansen tunes off the EP.
U.S. Customers: We currently can't ship to the US, but you can reach out to the band to snag a copy. Also, some of our US partners will have copies on hand, too.
