THE TING TINGS IN CONCERT:
After a two-year hiatus, British dance pop duo The Ting Tings reemerged bolder and better than ever in 2014 with their disco-infused third album, Super Critical. They proved they’ve still got it on stage too – their glammed-up sound gets concertgoers on their feet as they deliver funky guitar riffs and dance-worthy beats on songs like "Do It Again" and "Wrong Club". The multi-talented duo alternates between several different instruments -- frontwoman Katie White expertly loops her vocals while bouncing around between the guitar and the cowbell, while Jules De Martino has been known to play the drums and guitar at the same time. For just two people they create a surprisingly colossal sound. Their spunky dance pop and mood-enhancing LED light show never fail to blow ticket buyers away.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Katie White and Jules De Martino formed dance pop outfit The Ting Tings in 2006 in Manchester, England. They started out playing house parties and small clubs before self-releasing the vinyl single "That's Not My Name" in 2007. The track quickly amassed millions of views on their Myspace page, and by the end of the year they had inked a deal with Columbia Records. "That's Not My Name" reached No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart just as their 2008 follow-up single "Shut Up And Let Me Go" was earning them tons of new fans after being featured in an Apple commercial. Later in 2008 they released their debut album We Started Nothing, which hit No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart. In 2009 they toured extensively as an opening act for Pink and racked up several awards and nominations, including the Ivor Novello Award for Best Album and a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist. The following year they moved to Berlin and spent eight months recording their sophomore album, 2012's Sounds From Nowheresville, which showed off a darker and more electronic side. After taking a couple of years to refocus their sound they moved to Ibiza to record their third album, 2014's Super Critical, which was co-produced by Duran Duran guitarist Andy Taylor. Influenced by pre-EDM nightlife and '70s disco, the record treats fans to danceable, Diana Ross-inspired tracks that are only made better when heard live in concert.
