In a somewhat surprising surprising twist of events, it looks like 2 of the former Danity Kane leading ladies aren’t completely through with each other. As you may remember, Danity Kane met another downfall back in August of 2014 which resulted in the highly anticipated reunion coming to a screeching halt. The ladies went on to release their 3rd and final studio album, and proceeded to go their respective ways. Well, it looks like Aubrey O’Day and Shannon Bex had other plans as they continued to work on music with each other and have now officially announced their new pairing as dumblonde.
From the looks of their website and a brief description about them, it appears that dumblonde will take more of an alternative approach to their music.
Dumblonde is an independent alternative Dance/Pop duo created by singer/songwriters Aubrey O’Day and Shannon Bex formerly of the multi-platinum, international, chart topping female group Danity Kane. The girls were discovered on the hit MTV show “Making the Band”, and grew to be noted in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the only girl group to have two number one consecutive albums on Billboard. In their ten years sharing the stage these two formed an unbreakable bond while touring the world with many artists, including opening for the Black Eyed Peas, Backstreet Boys, and Christina Aguilera. Their indie pop debut has strong dance and alternative influences reminiscent of acts like The Ting Tings, and La Roux. The combination of their iconic blonde appeal, transcendent harmonies and powerful stage presence is a style unique only to Dumblonde.
There’s no official word on when music will be released, but from the looks of things, it appears that the ladies have a detailed plan that’s set and ready to take off. For now, you can head over to their website and purchase tickets to their first show & listening party of their new album. We’ll surely be checking for what these ladies have cooked up over the past few months.
