Genesis of the Group
Pretty Good Dance Moves started in 2007 in Chicago after Aaron Allieta and Jimmy Giannopoulos met while bartending together in Chicago. Pretty Good Dance Moves' first songs were "P.G.D.M" and "Demons Dancing" which were recorded between June and September 2007. Giannopoulos and Allieta soon contacted Genevieve Schatz from the Chicago band Company of Thieves. The three started to create music together. Schatz's vocal performances are featured on the earliest songs Pretty Good Dance Moves produced, which were written and recorded between January and May 2007. Collaborations would remain an integral part of the group's creative process. Early acclaim
Pretty Good Dance Moves' self-released, self-titled EP struck a chord with the Chicago Sun-Times music critic and former Rolling Stone editor, Jim DeRogatis. After a favorable review in the Chicago Sun-Times, the band got noticed by Chicago music goers and music journalists from publications like SPIN, Time Out Magazine, the Chicago Tribune and influential music blogs. Pretty Good Dance Moves went on to win Famecast's award for best electronic video, which included $10,000 in award money and features in Billboard magazine. In 2011, Pretty Good Dance Moves signed to Mad Dragon Records to release their first full-length album entitled "Limo". The LP, consisting of 8 songs, was released on February 7, 2012, and featured vocals from Sabina Sciubba of Brazilian Girls. Style
