dada is back! The acclaimed genre-defying rock trio will embark on a tour beginning with a concert at The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano on Saturday, Feb. 24. The band will also perform at the Troubadour in Los Angeles on June 8, and at nearby Pappy + Harriet's on June 7.

Beginning with the release of dada's incredible 1992 full-length debut album Puzzle, singer-guitarist Michael Gurley, singer-bassist Joie Calio and drummer-singer Phil Leavitt have effortlessly and artfully created memorable rock songs blending progressive rock musicianship, breathtaking vocal harmonies and melodic power pop ear candy. In addition to Puzzle, the band's other great album releases include American Highway Flower, El Subliminoso and How to Be Found.

This writer has seen dada in concert a score of times since the early 1990s and the band's performances are always exhilirating; (read my review of dada's 2017 performance at The Coach House HERE).

dada was founded when Gurley and Calio began writing songs and performing as an acoustic duo. Their additional strengths as top-tier songwriters was bolstered when virtuoso drummer Leavitt completed the lineup in time to record Puzzle (released Sept. 8, 1992).

The album's first single "Dizz Knee Land" found widespread airplay on both alternative and mainstream rock outlets. The band was soon touring around the globe, opening for the acclaimed likes of Crowded House, Sting and Depeche Mode.
