After stints making music under the names Run DMT and Salvia Plath, L.A. artist Michael Collins changed his name to the less pun-based, yet still provocative Drugdealer.
Run DMT had been a lo-fi psychedelic project starting in 2009 that released a couple albums before being sued by an EDM band of the same name. After changing the project's name to Salvia Plath, Collins took a folkier, more layered approach on the 2013 album The Bardo Story. With Drugdealer, Collins changed directions again, looking to the singer/songwriters of the early '70s and soft rock pioneers like Harry Nilsson for inspiration. The band's 2016 album, The End of Comedy, was released by Weird World in September of 2016. On it, Collins invited many guests to contribute including Ariel Pink, Weyes Blood, Danny James, members of Mild High Club, and Sheer Agony. ~ Tim Sendra
