Dorothy Martin doesn’t tiptoe around rock ‘n’ roll, she barrels straight through it. With The Way, the Budapest-born, Los Angeles-based leader of her own band, Dorothy, delivers her most uncompromising album yet. Fusing grit, melody, and a fearless attitude The Way is a collection built for big stages and even bigger moments.

Dorothy has never been one to second-guess herself, and that makes her impossible to ignore. From the start, her voice has been her weapon of choice, a raw and commanding force that made tracks like “Raise Hell” and “Wicked Ones” into rock anthems. As she evolved through 28 Days in the Valley (2018) and Gifts From The Holy Ghost (2022), critics took note, with Kerrang! praising her “hot-blooded rock ‘n’ roll” and Outburn calling her work “bombastic and gloriously victorious.” But while past albums carried the fire of rebellion, The Way feels like the arrival of an artist who’s not just surviving the storm, she’s leading the charge through it.

One of many highlights is "Tombstone Town," a riff-heavy, outlaw-stomp of a single featuring a searing guest solo from Slash. It’s a perfect introduction to an album that leans into Dorothy’s strengths, soulful, blues-infused vocals wrapped in towering guitars and rhythms that hit like a freight train. But The Way is a lot more than just muscle, it breathes conviction. Songs like "Made To Die" and "Black Sheep" tap into something deeper, showcasing her ability to turn defiance into anthems and vulnerability into power.

Through it all, Dorothy remains an artist who plays by her own rules. Her journey, from small club gigs to sold-out tours, and from early industry buzz to a dedicated global fanbase, has been built on instinct, persistence, and an unshakable belief in the music. And with The Way, she’s not just proving herself again, and she’s leaving no doubt.
