The Dollyrots - check them out!
Here's a random post from me to break up the normal routine. Let's call it "Friday Fun". :) I am happy that it's Friday, the sun is shining and the weekend is just around the corner. Since I am in a happy/fun mood I thought it would be cool to share one of my new favorite artists with everyone. If you are friends with me on Facebook you have probably seen my random posts but not all of you are on there so I figured it couldn't hurt to make a blog post too. :)
My newest music discovery is a band out of Southern California called "The Dollyrots". They have actually been around and in existence for a while, their first album came out in 2004. Their sound is a mixture of punk/rock/pop and has some very cool loud songs but also some fun happy-go lucky poppier ones. They seem to be more famous with more exposure on the West Coast of the US so I thought why not try and give them a shout out on here to help them get more well-known in the rest of the world. :)
You can read a fun little bio here to learn more about them. My favorite song by them is "Rollercoaster"
Also check out "Because I Am Awesome" and a really cool acoustic cover of the song "Almost" by the band Bowling For Soup.
If you want to see a live performance by them and live in the greater L.A. area you can see them play with The Muffs in Long Beach, CA on June 22nd. You can check out the poster for the show/venue here.
If you are anywhere else in the world you still have the chance to catch a live performance online on May 23rd. Here is the link to their upcoming performance. Seems like they are going to be covering Beatles songs which should be a lot of fun.
So make sure to check them out and let me know what you guys think. :) I have a very reliable source who tells me Kelly is a super cool chick ;) so don't miss out and go click on some of my links.
