Featured Artist- DONORA

DONORA


The story of Donora is as such, Jake H. met Casey a few hours after she was born. He was disappointed she was a girl and cried. Eighteen years later, he got over it, and they started a band. A few years after that, they suckered another kid named Jake C. into playing bass. After shooting down Casey’s idea to name the band Casey and the Jakes, they became Donora.

Donora is a cheery three-piece band and together they play melodic, dance-worthy, garage pop. Their debut self-titled album, released by Rostrum Records (with label mate Wiz Khalifa) is uplifting, colorful and dynamic.

There is not one song on this album that won’t have you singing along within the first spin and instantly feeling as if you’ve known this band for years.
.

Songs like “The Chorus” may have you thinking this is the soundtrack to your own life, where songs like “Photograph” remind us to cherish each moment.
Donora recorded a video for “Shout” that you can see here:

“I Think I Like You” which you can see here:
*****************
Donora has shared the stage with bands like The Ting Tings, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!, Tokyo Police Club, Elf Power, Cracker, Walter Meego, and Dressy Bessy.
Their first full-length album is now available on itunes:
