“"The appeal of The Deep Drags is immediate and lasting. They have rejuvenated a pure Indie Rock sound that seemingly vanished from the indie scene. It's refreshing. You've only have to hear them once, and you'll be hooked." --UnPop Records”

The Deep Drags..."There's a 1960's garage fun element to his (Kenny Sandler) songs, but also a considerable 1980's indie polish. "If You Want Me To" sounds pretty ready for rock radio circa 1984 to me, but I'm also partial to the hooky jangle of "You Don't Know Love". - Dennis Pilon
THE HUGS MUSIC REVIEW: "WAKE UP CINDERELLA" By George Duchow
"Wake Up Cinderella", by New Jersey's The Deep Drags, is a subtle warning wrapped in a nice musical package. The opening toy piano and vibrating guitar immediately grab you. They reminded me of 'Book of Love'. Kenny Sandler's (lead vocals/bass/music & lyrics) vocal delivery is subdued, but speaks louder than a scream. Patti Rothberg's (guitars, vocals, piano) choice of chorus guitar tone gives power to the message. This is an extremely well thought out and well crafted song that will get your attention. And it should!"

BIO:
The Deep Drags are a blend of retro rock-n-roll with a modern indie feel, combining the sound of the 1960's British Invasion with 1980's Garage Rock & Power/Psych Pop. Founded by songwriter, bassist and lead vocalist Kenny Sandler, the band features former EMI recording artist Patti Rothberg (Guitar/ Vocals), with Jim Lebo (Drums) and Mike Koenen (Guitar). The Deep Drags' music has been played in over 45 countries, with many of their single releases charting on worldwide weekly Top 10 indie radio station playlists, including six #1 hits such as "Snoozin Tree Lane", "Hot Summer City Girl", "Dullards", "Creepy Girl", "Karma is a Cruel, Cruel Mistress", and "Forgotten Man". The Radio Indie Alliance Top 100 Indie Songs of the Week include "Snoozin Tree Lane " #4, "Hot Summer City Girl" #12, "Dullards" #15, "Karma is a Cruel, Cruel Mistress" #26 and "You Don't Know Love" #42. Their 2025 summer hit, "Hot Summer City Girl" climbed to #14 on the World Indie Music Charts. In early 2024, the band was nominated by Hugs WRRG Radio in three categories, Best New Group, Best Band and Best Song (Wake Up Cinderella). Several of The Deep Drags singles have been featured nationally on Sirius/XM's "Little Steven's Underground Garage", and they were invited and performed their warm, yet bold indie rock at the 2024 and 2025 International Pop Overthrow Festival in NYC.
