BIOGRAPHY

Inspired by the legendary 90s scene, the French trio Dean Wallace draws its strength from the imagery and sounds of this seminal decade. Their music stands out for its rare standards of excellence, inherited from major American productions: a perfect balance between overpowering riffs, an implacable groove, and meticulously crafted vocal melodies. Driven by English lyrics rooted in the issues of our time, the band breathes a freshness and singularity that disrupt the codes of the genre, establishing themselves as a line-up as authentic as it is surprising.

HISTORY

The band was born in 2023, founded by guitarist Rémy Boyer and drummer Thibaud Pontet. After recording four tracks in their home studio, the two musicians approached labels across Europe and signed a contract with The Animal Farm, a London-based label. The release of the first EP was planned, and the band recruited a bassist and an additional guitarist. The first single, "New World Disorder," was released in October 2023, and the band's first EP was officially released on April 5, 2024. The track "See What I'm All About," quickly reached 10,000 streams on Spotify and was played on several local radio stations (including RTL2) for several months through.

The band held their first concert on May 9, 2024, in Paris, opening for the Spanish band Lotura, who were then on a European tour. Their first festival appearance took place at MordorFest in Lozère on August 17, 2024. A new lineup was formed in the winter of 2025, with the arrival of bassist Brice Berrerd.

During a competition organized by Harley-Davisdon, Dean Wallace finished in the top five out of over 1,600 entrants and was invited to perform at the Eurofestival in Port-Grimaud on May 9, 2025. The band played for the first time with big names such as Rag'N'Bone Man and Eagle Eye Cherry.

The new EP "Rising" was released on September 12th 2025.
