About Us

THE DODIES is a young garage rock duo from the southern desert of Israel. Yoni Avittan fronts the band as lead vocalist and guitarist, as Ran Aronson sings backing vocals while simultaneously playing bass lines on keyboard with one hand and playing the entire drum kit with the other.

In 2016 they self-recorded and independently released their first album “It’s One Hell of a Ride”.  Soon after they were brought to America to begin work on their next album in Austin, Texas with producers Matt Novesky (Blue October) and Ron ‘Bumblefoot’ Thal (Asia, Sons Of Apollo, ex-Guns N’ Roses). The recording  was followed by concerts in New York City, Los Angeles, and Texas.

THE DODIES songs jump head-first into depression, alienation and rage, contrasted by hooky riffs and catchy melodies.
