The Dollyrots - Power/Pop/Punk Rock Band
Saturday, 31 March, 2012
The Dollyrots, comprised of Kelly Ogden (bass/vocals), Luis Cabezas (guitar) and Alicia Warrington (drums), was originally founded by childhood friends Ogden and Cabezas in their native Florida. The pair decided to move to Los Angeles in 2002 and have recently seen the addition of drummer Warrington. The band has released three full length albums (Eat My Heart Out, Because I’m Awesome, and A Little Messed Up) and several singles and EPs through the Lookout, Blackheart, and Brando record labels. In addition, The Dollyrots’ music has earned them song placements, commercials, and acting stints in television shows including Hewlett-Packard, Kohls, CSI:NY, ABC Family’s Greek, Ugly Betty, Vampire Diaries, The Price is Right, Easy A, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, Reaper, and Bring It On: Fight to the Finish, among others. The trio has logged hundreds of thousands of miles in the U.S. touring consistently since 2003 while cultivating a rabidly loyal fan base. Over the past 10 years, The Dollyrots have worked with a number of well-known producers including John Fields (Andrew WK, Pink), Chris Testa (Jimmy Eat World, Dixie Chicks), Matt Wallace (Maroon 5, Faith No More), Sylvia Massy (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tool), and Neal H. Pogue (Outkast, Travis Barker.) The past year has seen the three-piece touring across the North America both headlining and alongside bands such as Bowling For Soup, Buzzcocks, and The Go-Gos. In 2010 The Dollyrots toured the UK & Ireland with Bowling For Soup and Forever the Sickest Kids, playing to sold out crowds and expanding their fan base overseas. For The Dollyrots, 2012 is gearing up to be their best year yet as they are currently putting the finishing touches on their fourth full length album independently and with John Fields, producer of “Eat My Heart Out” and “Because I’m Awesome.” The album is in large part being funded by fans through a Kickstarter crowdsourcing project that has thus far doubled initial fundraising expectations. Coming off a strong year of touring and recording the band is anxious to expand their horizons and build on what they’ve accomplished with a new album supported by their fans.
