[[http://itsdorothysucka.com/ DOROTHY]] is a rock band from Los Angeles, California, composed of Dorothy Martin (vocals), Jason Ganberg (percussion), guitarists Nick Maybury and Eli Wulfmeier, and bassist Eliot Lorango. Original members Zac Morris and Mark Jackson left the band in 2016, and Gregg Cash left in 2017.

The band had its inception in a meeting between Martin and Music/MarkJackson and Music/IanScott in 2013, who brought Zac Morris to the band and suggested modifications to the song "After Midnight" (originally a piano ballad) that resulted in a signature sound mixing old-school metal rock with tones of Southern {{blues}}. Many of DOROTHY's songs have the beat and repetition of Afro-American spirituals but are lyrically anything but, combining well with Martin's raspy singing voice. They came in at #14 on ''Magazine/RollingStone'''s 50 Best New Artists of 2014.

The band has made appearances with Music/{{Halestorm}} and Music/LitaFord, with Lzzy Hale saying the band made her "proud of the future of rock".

In 2021 Martin gave an [[https://loudwire.com/dorothy-interview-guitar-tech-died-came-back/ interview]] with Loudwire wherein she said that the band's next album would be called ''Gifts From The Holy Ghost''. She said the title for the album came to her following an incident where she allegedly watched her guitar tech died from a heroin overdose. Martin then said she felt the urge to form a prayer circle around the tech and they all joined hands and prayed to "anyone out there" to send him back, and heard a voice saying "Okay, we're sending him back now". When she opened her eyes, the tech was in the midst of waking up alive and well.
