Best comment I ever saw about him: “face of a bricklayer, voice of an angel”

[@Evie170]

Been a while since we've had a real epic working class indie band. Very exciting times! 😊

[@louis2712l]

Dma’s are incredible and this guy is one of the greatest singers we’ve seen in a long time

[@scottcooper1uk]

One of the greatest singers I’ve ever heard

[@owenwright8271]

Love DMS no props no ego just brilliant tunes had the pleasure of seeing them early doors following there journey seen them 4 times now and hope for many more times

[@ryansymons8915]

you don't get many singers these days that can move you like he does.. first time I saw "Silver" from the Brixton show on here it sent shivers down my spine.. absolute master class.. and not to mention how good the other members are at what they do.

[@Toralya]

Can't believe you used to be a drummer, Tommy. That voice is incredible! Well done with DMA's, it's an incredible band.

[@Nightowl333]

Man I would give anything to hear that voice memo of Silver on his phone. Literally the first time that melody was sung into the universe. Need to hear that magic!

[@federal_europe]

What I find special about DMA's is their development. As Tommy said, Your Low is a great song, but so are Too Soon, Tape Deck Sick, Silver and many more. Key is, they're all superb and each of them in their own right, be it garage influenced or more ballad-like. Really like where they're heading with The Glow. Wishing them all the best and hoping to see them live as soon as possible!

[@KeepCalmAndTravelOn]

So not only can he sing, but he also gives great interviews!

[@Evie170]

Tommy coming up with the " How do I re-define all my love for you..." bit on Silver... Really epic chorus! 😊

[@lewis_kelly]

Love this! Seems so rare that he gives interviews but clearly so switched on. Best band going atm!!

[@tomshaw885]

Always enjoy these interviews. No over the top attempts to be "relatable", just good questions in a chill environment.

[@FaceCulture]

Much appreciated David, Thanks for watching!

[@beebaker1014]

Love this guy, what a voice, what a band!! So glad you aren't a drummer anymore you got your calling to be heard at the right time 😊👍

[@musicispower1970]

The new album is fantastic. This is a great interview too. I have watched loads of FaceCulture interviews with various bands and the interviewer (is he Dutch?) always asks carefully considered, interesting questions. Keep up the good work

[@FaceCulture]

Thanks man! glad you enjoy it, and yes, we are based in Amsterdam.

[@StephenHorler]

This band will be real big as they are all good writers....showing The Gallagher boys how to sound like Oasis.

[@ichisanchi5334]

DMAs at Brixton Academy was fucking incredible

[@DPC1987]

Should have asked him how the beer was at the sugarmill? I remember him taking one drink and his reaction... He gave it to me to finish off

[@FaceCulture]

Hahah, so how was the beer?

[@DPC1987]

@@FaceCulture awful. Lager that can only be described as tasting like the static sound from an old TV. It was awful. Saw him open a bottle, take one swig and he gave it to me. I still drank it ofcoure 😂

[@FaceCulture]

haha, at least it was free :D

[@matthewsmith7548]

Hahaha I was there and I still remember that. It was Brooklyn Lager, it really tastes of soap.

[@Jason-Scott]

Seems a lovely chap

[@benjaminbirch145]

Can't wait to see these guys at O2 on 21st, fucking legends

[@thecfbutcher1174]

Looks like Mark E Smith from the fall here lol

[@colinjohnstone1992]

3:25 Tommy looked a bit awkward. What was happening there?...…Hmmmm

[@colinjohnstone1992]

It was 3:15 actually.

[@BH-pg8qe]

The interviewer talks too much
