  • Comment: Dang. This one is close, but most of the best sources are interviews, which doesn't constitute independent coverage, as much of their content is from the subject, as opposed to about the subject. Drewmutt (^ᴥ^) talk 22:49, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Dresses was an American indie pop duo.[1][2][3][4] Vocalist Timothy Heller and guitarist Jared Maldonado formed the indie-pop duo Dresses in 2013 from Portland, Oregon.[5] The band released one studio album and two EPs, with the single "Sun Shy" reaching over 13 million plays on Spotify and several other singles reaching over a million plays.[6] They served as the opening act of some dates of Melanie Martinez's Dollhouse Tour in 2013 and 2014, and their song "Catch" was featured on American television series The Vampire Diaries. Dresses opened for French indie-pop band Phoenix along with the San Francisco based band The Limousines in 2014. The single "Sun Shy" was featured on the ABC Family TV show Switched at Birth.[7][8][9] However, without any official announcement, Dresses disbanded in mid-2016, and both musicians went on to pursue solo projects.
