Today DEAP VALLY, the dynamic rock duo comprising Lindsey Troy and Julie Edwards, is excited to release their final EP, (ep)ilogue, on Deap Vally Records (stream). The band is releasing a new music video for "It's My World" to celebrate their new release. The video, which was directed by Darren Stein, is streaming now on YouTube.
On working with Deap Vally, Darren Stein says, "I’ve always adored rock goddesses like Grace Jones, Siouxsie, Blondie, and Joan Jett, and Lindsey and Julie most definitely belong in that pantheon. 'It’s My World’ struck me as such a celebratory proclamation of female empowerment, owning your greatness and embracing your unapologetic self. I loved the image of all kinds of people singing that anthemic chorus to the camera in a stripped-down way and channeling Deap Vally's ferociousness. And having a teenage hip hop dancing team in slo-mo intercut with Julie and Lindsey rocking out with all their hair and tassels flying felt very 'Sparkle Motion' done the Deap Vally way."

Deap Vally has long been a beacon of raw energy and feminist empowerment in the music industry. Their gritty guitar riffs and thunderous beats have captivated audiences worldwide since they met in a crochet class in 2010.  Last year, Deap Vally announced their bittersweet decision to part ways, going out with an extensive farewell tour and the self-released re-record of their debut SISTRIONIX 2.0 out now. 
Deap Vally’s journey has been nothing short of remarkable, marked by a powerful body of work, including Sistrionix (2013), Femejism produced by Nick Zinner of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, (2016), and Marriage (2022), two EPs featuring collaborations with KT Tunstall, Peaches, Jamie Hince of The Kills, Soko, and jennylee of Warpaint- Digital Dream and American Cockroach (2021) and their Deap Lips collaboration with The Flaming Lips (2020).

Deap Vally has shared stages with icons Red Hot Chili Peppers, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Muse, Queens of the Stone Age, Arctic Monkeys, Blondie, Garbage, Peaches and Mumford and Sons, and played Coachella, Reading & Leeds, Later with Jools Holland, plus drummer Edwards co-founded legendary Southern Californian art and music festival Desert Daze.  
Future plans include a Lindsey Troy solo record with regular updates to Troy's Troy on Tour Substack, while Edwards will launch a new music project Dosiopath, an interview series, Drumb and Drumber, and is pursuing a master's degree in Forensic Psychology.

The band is playing the last leg of their Live for the Last Time Farewell Tour in the EU / UK with special guest HotWax. Edwards is pulling double-duty as Dosiopath - her new project with Solon Bixler (30 Seconds to Mars, Great Northern) - is also supporting: 1st of 3 in Europe and direct support in the UK.
