There are at least 5 artists called The Dots:
1. A New York punk band formed in 1978 by Jimmi QUIDD (vocals), Rick Grehl (guitar) & Leigh Sioris (bass). The group released one single in 1979 called "I Don't Wanna Dance (with You) b/w Immortals" with drummer Robert Jr Medici of Model Citizens. Other musicians from the New York scene at that time often accompanied the trio on stage. Jimmi QUIDD also financed the first single by Bad Brains ("Pay To Cum b/w Stay Close To Me") in 1980. He died in 1990 of a ruptured aneurysm.
2. We are five lads from germany doing some kind of decadent Rock. We know it's all going downhill, but we're trying to keep style. Decadence always got a hidden hope of a final rise. So we are not Punks. We got good behaviour. We are playing british Garage with some side steps into Country.

3. Hailing from Glasgow, Scotland; After a failed attempt at the illustrious Hungarian Electro Soul movement, the band binned their key-tars, removed their make up, kicked their ridiculous Toilet Duck habit and formed - The Dots. A band some would call indie, some may call rock n roll, The Dots mix a tight modern sound with a Stonesy swagger to create something special.
Charlie Jones - Bass/Vocals
Raymond Quinn - Guitar/Vocals
Mark McIntyre - Guitar/Vocals
Paul Quinn - Drums/Percussion

5. Four piece indie-rock band from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. The youthful Huddersfield based band have been together for a year now and have recently released a two-sided single featuring songs ‘you’re the one’ and ‘could I bear’, with both songs inspired by big choruses that are designed for an impressive live sound. The Dots are formed of Tom Seale (Lead vocal and rhythm guitarist), Ash Baker (Lead guitar and back-up vocalist), Finlay Jowett (Bass guitar) and Harry Millington (Drums).
