Nick Santa Maria and Cameron Moreland have been friends since they were 14. As teenagers, they bonded over their love of music. As adults, they turned that love of music into careers.
Although they’d always played in bands separately, the pandemic saw the pair form the group they'd always wanted. Santa Maria and Moreland wanted to create a project that comprised “dance floor rock and roll.” Taking inspiration from their favorite bands The Strokes, Taking Back Sunday, and The Rolling Stones, along with studying the dance-y pop stylings of The Weeknd and Gorillaz, they formed The Dirty Shirts.
Santa Maria says much of his writing time was also spent playing Scrabble with his wife, with “lots of wine, and lots of gin.” “I took an idea that I had from a song that I'd written years ago,” Santa Maria says. “I said, ‘I like the way this sounds, how do we make this sound current? And how do we make it sound something that's our own.’ A lot of those early songs came from me and Cam getting together. We both play with other people from Thursday until Saturday, we’d both sleep all day Sunday, and then Monday was kind of the start of our weekend.
