In 1994 The Dandy Warhols were formed in Portland, Oregon, in the shadow of the twilight years of the grunge scene. With Brit-pop reigning supreme on the other side of the pond, and influences ranging from 1960s garage rock to 80s/90s shoegaze, The Dandy Warhols began a career that would see them release nine studio albums, two compilation albums and 27 singles over a 25 year period.
“Holy cow, 25 years?!” says keyboardist Zia McCabe “I guess it has to have been that long since it feels like I’ve been doing this my entire life. Oh right, I have been doing this my entire adult life, ha. Time flies don’t it? So much history, so much music, so many memories and so much of it haaaazy, wow, just wow.”
Since their inception, The Dandy Warhols have sailed through, and past, shifting musical climates by keeping their art unfiltered and presenting thoughts un-mired by censorship. The band – Courtney Taylor-Taylor (vocals, guitar), McCabe (keyboards), Peter Holmström (guitar), and Brent DeBoer (drums) – have gone on world tours, had hit singles, and even taken to the stage during the Greek riots. They’ve weathered shifts from vinyl and tape to CD, CD to digital, and back to vinyl again. They moved from paper fliers to social media, toiled with major labels, and throughout it all have remained a pure, synergistic unit.
The band’s live presence – frequently filled with nudity early in their career – was enough that, at their first gig in 1994, they were approached by the independent record label Tim/Kerr who offered to pay for the recording of an album. The result was their debut, 1995’s Dandys Rule OK, an album that impressed major label Capitol Records enough to sign the band.
The band’s difficult second album, …The Dandy Warhols Come Down, was released in 1997 and spawned three Top 40 singles including ‘Not If You Were the Last Junkie on Earth’ (more commonly known as Heroin is so Passé). But it was with the release of 2000’s Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia that the band hit the public consciousness with full force. The mega hit ‘Bohemian Like You’ landed in the cultural sphere like a freight train and has yet to leave it.
Touring the world , the band built on their popularity to gain international acclaim. Their performance at the Glastonbury Festival in 2000 so inspired David Bowie that he not only curated them to perform at Meltdown 2002 but came out to duet with them on The Velvet Underground’s ‘White Light / White Heat’ as part of the encore on July 29th.
Not content to sit back on their laurels, the band released Welcome to the Monkey House in 2003 featuring their next zeitgeist catching single ‘We Used To Be Friends’ which became the theme song for the cult TV series Veronica Mars.
Throughout the 2000s the band continued to release albums – Odditorium or Warlords of Mars (2005), …Earth to the Dandy Warhols… (2008), The Dandy Warhols Are Sound (2009) This Machine (2012) and Distortland (2016).

If I win these tickets that means daughter and I will finally get to see the upsidedown perform for the first time! The dandys are the perfect choice for a new year’s event! Love them so much!
We all know that The Dandy’s Rule, OK but to have Federale on the bill as well makes this a great double bill of Portland legends on New Years Eve. I gotta win these tickets.
Well, wouldn’t a New Years Eve with the Worhols be just Dandy!
We see the Dandy’s almost every year, when they come home for Christmas. Would love to bring in the New Year with them.
Haven’t had the opportunity to go to a live music experience in years, this would be epic! I have the best New Years Eve outfit I would love to show off and dance the new year in 💃💖🥳🤩🥰🥂😍 Thank you for this fabulous opportunity! Xoxo
I’ve been in Portland for 13 years and have seen the Dandy Warhols twice on NYE. Would be lovely to continue the streak and share the experience with a friend.
I’ve never saw the Dandy Warhols before. Would like to see them.
Dandys Rule, OK!
I want win tickets so I can sing We Used to Be Friends with The Dandy Warhols!
I would love this!
If I get these tickets, I’m taking my BFF and we will dress as Rococo dandies. 💋
I have never seen The Dandy Warhols and I know that’s pathetic as this is Portland and they’ve played a gazillion shows here but how about setting me up with tickets to see them for the first time.
I would absolutely love to make this my NYE plan. Federale is my favorite!
I can’t think of a more magical way to jump into 2022..filled with live music, a GREAT band, and a community coming back together to ring in the New Year!
A new year Eve show with the dandies would be perfect!
FEDERALE!!!!
I would love to win these tix as there is no finer way to reel in the new year than with the Dandies!
Sounds so fun!
I have always wanted to see the Dandy Warhols! The documentary Dig was on constant play for many years. Seeing them on NYE would be a DREAM!
Have never seen the Warhols that are Dandy live…sad, but true. Would be ever so grateful to see them and on New Years Eve in Portland too?
Dandy and Federale!?! Count us in!
I’d love to see the Dandy Warhols on New Year’s Eve. Would be my first time seeing these local legends!
Yay Federale! Gotta support a work friend lol and my partner love the dandy warhols
Sounds like the most fun!
sounds like a gooden of a time
portland’s own christmas sweater of a band, bringing it into 2022!
It’ll just be me and my teenager this year. This would rock. Literally.
I would really DIG free tickets to The Dandy Warhols on New Years Eve. Plus free tickets leaves me more cash for some cocktails at the show and with Tri Met free all night I can have a few more than usual and make it home safe.
This would indeed be a fine & DANDY New Years if I get to see this show!
Would love some NYE love with the Dandy Warhols!!
My brother died on December 2 and I’d like to remember him thru music.
Aw shit this would be a wonderful NYE party 🎊
This sounds so fun!
Omg the Dandy’s rock! Would love to go!
Brit-pop ringing in the new year! Sounds like a dandy time.
I would love to attend this event!! I think it would be a great celebration into the New Year! Plus I have never seen The Dandy Warhols and I would love to see them:)
Many many many many Portland years ago, before Dandy Warhols was a thing, I met a friend at PSU and she was dating the lead singer of Beauty Stab, Courtney Taylor. I introduced her to a friend of mine, who was a different lead singer of a different local band. She ended up marrying that guy. Sorry Courtney. I’ll make it up to you by being an enthusiastic audience member at your show if I win these tix.
COVID; lost job of 22 years; up against financial, medical and social despair…
BUT STILL POSITIVE! Still in love with the sweetness of life. Nothing could be much sweeter right now that the DAndy Warhols on NYE.
This would be super fun and I would love to attend!
I would very much appreciate seeing the Warhols for the first time!
I’d love to win!
I’ve been a fan of The Dandy Warhol’s since 2002. My sister’s and I have seen them on multiple occasions, and would love the opportunity to enjoy their music live again. We are fans for life!
I’m getting wise and I’m feeling so bohemian like you.
I would love to celebrate NYE with my kiddo and the Dandy’s! Local legend and in the neighborhood too. Thanks for the opportunity!
I would love this! It would make for a DANDY 2022🌟
Feeling socially remiss for not having seen the Dandys in 25 years. They sound fabulous and so does Federale! Please help me correct this blunder!
Only a crazy person would want to miss this event. Yes, I’d like to go!!
I have been a fan of the Dandy Warhols for years, it would be awesome to see them live! That would make for a great start to 2022.
I want to go to a good concert to honor my middle brother who died in December a few years ago. He would of loved this.
Sounds great!
i’d love to ring in the new year with the dandy warhols!
Bring that revolution.
Spaghetti western @
sounds so fun!!
Smiling and saying let’s go.
Dandy!!!!!❤️
Such a great band to bring in the new year with.
Thanks.
Want to ring in 2022 as one of the “capitol years” by seeing the Dandy Warhols
I’d love to win tickets because both of these bands are awesome and the revolution hall is a great venue. And it’s on New Year’s Eve!
Mix me and these bands for the best NYE cocktail!
Candy is Dandy but the Warhals is what I want!
I am one of those weird people in Portland who is a Dandy Warhols fan but has surprisingly never had the pleasure of seeing them. I’d love to change that for the New Year!
Winning tix to this show would be dandy!
🎶 I like you, I like you, I like you, PDX Pipeline 🎶
It would be my first opportunity to see this band live!
Would love to win these tickets for me and my fiance! Crossing our fingers! 🙂
Another great event for NYE!
Sound like fun event, I really would like to go.
I would love to take a good friend with me to this concert! Thanks for the chance!
