Repping Chicago’s South Side, The Dead Bolts plant their heels in post-punk with defiant lyricism and sensational grooves. Their 2025 album ‘Bèau Mondè’ marks a bold evolution from cover band to nationwide touring powerhouse, running on the fuel of unrelenting riffage and a deep commitment to craft. Built on the irreplaceable sounds of new wave music, The Dead Bolts’ live performance is a gargantuan feat tethered by the seven-piece ensemble’s shared camaraderie. During their interview with Audiotree Host, Psalm One, the band chats about a hidden gem in Chicago, their band van “Vancis,” and the “Promised Land” music video. Check out The Dead Bolts on Audiotree Live!
