Their track “Rock N Roll” entered the Top 10 UK Official Vinyl Albums Charts as part of the compilation Earache Presents: The New Wave Of Rock N Roll on March 26 2020.[4][5]

History

The Dust Coda's first release was their The More It Fades EP, which came out in 2016 and features the single “The More It Fades”, an acoustic version of “The More It Fades” and a live version of “Sweet Love Is Gone” recorded at Astral Studios. The band's debut studio album, The Dust Coda, was self-released in November 2017.[6]

The Dust Coda saw Planet Rock Radio airplay of their singles "Breakdown" and "Weakness", on both the A-list in 2021 and the B-list in 2017, and Wyatt Wendels' New Rock Show, respectively, and a video premiere of their single "Let Me Go" via Planet Rock's webpage.[7][8] The Dust Coda were nominated for Best New Band as part of Planet Rock Radio's The Rocks awards in 2017 and named as one of Planet Rock's 'Ones To Watch'.[2][8] The first single from their album Mojo Skyline, "Limbo Man", was added to the B-list on Planet Rock Radio in November 2020[9], and the "Limbo Man" music video was also premiered via Planet Rock's webpage.[10] "Limbo Man" was also featured in Classic Rock Magazine's 'Tracks Of The Week'.[11] Their single “Weakness” appeared in Classic Rock Magazine's online poll for Greatest Rock Song of the 21st Century.[12] Their song "Demon" was recently selected to be played on Sir Elton John's Apple Music Beats 1 show Rocket Hour, and the song was added to his 'Elton John: Loves' Spotify playlist, which highlights new music. On 12th December, their new single "Limbo Man" received airplay on BBC Radio 2 via The Rock Show with Johnnie Walker.[13]

The Dust Coda have performed across various British rock festivals, including Planet Rockstock, Winter's End, Ramblin' Man Fair, Steelhouse Festival and Hard Rock Hell.[1][7][8][14][15][16]

They have supported bands such as Black Stone Cherry, British Lion (formed by Iron Maiden's Steve Harris) and The Dead Daisies.[15][16]

The Dust Coda are considered a part of the 'New Wave Of Classic Rock'.[17] Their track “Rock N Roll” appeared on rock and metal label Earache Records' compilation Earache Presents: The New Wave Of Rock N Roll, which charted at #10 in the UK Official Vinyl Albums Chart.[4][5]

In 2020, following the release of this compilation, The Dust Coda signed to Earache Records.[18] Their sophomore album Mojo Skyline is due to be released by Earache Records in 2021.[18][19] The album artwork was designed by Nick Dwyer, artist and creative director at Beavertown Brewery, using the same artistic style as Beavertown's beer designs.[19]

Mojo Skyline features performances from Tom Pinder (trombone), Gavin Fitzjohn (trumpet/tenor saxophone/baritone saxophone) and Nick Nasmyth (piano/organ), who have played for the likes of Manic Street Preachers, Paolo Nutini and Kylie Minogue.[20][21]
