Dudes is the sixth full-length album by singer-songwriter David Mead.

The majority of songs that appear on the album were chosen by a group of fans who were a part of the Kickstarter campaign to fund Dudes. Of the 15 demos that fans were given to audition, 11 made the final cut; "Curled Up in the Corner" was added during recording sessions for the album in January 2011. The songs that didn't make the cut were "On My Street," "Milk Baby," "The National Conference for Sales Managers," and "Plain White Men."

The official release date for Dudes was November 15, 2011, but fans who contributed to its Kickstarter campaign began receiving their autographed copies of the album during the week of September 19.
