Dipsomaniacs
"Hello Cleveland"

Released in 2005

The Dipsos were a classic power pop band led by Mick Chorba, a wonderful songwriter. I was a big fan of the band and still am.

Mick would go on to form The Successful Failures and continue to write great songs. He's one of the best songwriters in the state, imo. One of the most profilic as well.
