Today, they drop the brand new single “Leave Me Alone” accompanied by a stunning visual. Check it out here. On the track a bold bass line fit for Let’s Dance-era Bowie holds down the syncopated riff accompanied by the shimmering beats of drummer Ryan Seaman, providing the perfect backdrop for Dallon’s spirited vocals. The song’s refrain is a slippery send-off, “Now I want you to leave me alone.” Dallon explains the inspiration behind the song, “when you’re in a toxic situation, the phrase ‘Leave Me Alone’  is the last civil thing you say before things get uncivil.

 

‘Razzmatazz’ is the next chapter in iDKHOW’s unfurling curated story line, in the multi-faceted world Dallon has constructed, iDKHOW was initially believed to have been a band from 30 plus years ago that never got their big break. But in 2017, an anonymous source began to release recovered video footage of iDKHOW. The videos that span the years 1964 to 1983 have been released out of sequence and display a mysterious genesis that has yet to be understood.

 

Dallon Weekes made waves in Panic! At The Disco from 2009-2018, touring around the world and picking up Gold and Platinum plaques as a key songwriter on the chart-topping ‘Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die!‘ and more. In 2016, he introduced iDKHOW at a small show in Los Angeles before denying its existence for months to follow. The project formally revealed itself prior to hitting the road and performing on the mainstage at UK’s Reading and Leeds Festivals as well as sharing stages with the likes of Twenty One Pilots, The 1975, Billie Eilish, The Killers, The National and Blink 182, just to name a few.

 

iDKHOW’s debut album ‘Razzmatazz’ will be released on Wednesday October 16 through Fearless Records/Caroline Australia, with new single “Leave Me Alone” available now to stream and purchase
