(ASBURY PARK, NJ) -- After a successful spring tour run of the Midwest with The Von Tramps and tearing it up in Europe with Bowling for Soup and Lit, the Dollyrots are revived and road-ready for a Summer tour with stops on the East USA and Fall dates on the West Coast. Locally, the tour comes to The Saint in Asbury Park on July 14; Bowery Electric in NY on July 15; Debonair Music Hall in Teaneck on July 19; and Milk Boy in Philadelphia on July 20.
The Dollyrots are Kelly Ogden on vocals and bass and Luis Cabezas on guitar, with Justin McGrath on live drums. Says Kelly, “It’s been too long since we’ve hit a lot of these cities and we are raring to go! So many familiar faces and places we've missed the past couple years, so we are ready to make up for lost time. Cannot wait to bring the fun and mania!”
Cleopatra Records released The Dollyrots high energy, punk rock version of Gilbert O’Sullivan’s 1972 hit “Alone Again (Naturally)” as a Limited Edition 7″ on pink vinyl on June 17.
The Dollyrots have released albums on Panic Button/Lookout and Blackheart Records and are now working with Little Steven Van Zandt’s Wicked Cool Records. The most recent release is Down The Rabbit Hole, a 24-track collection of B-sides, rarities, and cover songs with a Dollyrots twist. The diverse collection features songs from throughout the band’s 20-year history, remastered and including previously unheard tracks and alternate takes. Available now at major retail outlets and streaming platforms both in the USA and abroad via Wicked Cool Records. Get Down the Rabbit Hole at your preferred music service here.
The trio has hit the Billboard Heatseekers chart multiple times, been featured in movies and television, and have shared stages with some of punk’s biggest names. Kelly is currently the host of Sunrise Surprise radio show weekday mornings from 4:00am EST to 8:00am EST on SiriusXM's Underground Garage (Ch. 21) as well as voicing Stevie Van Zandt’s “Coolest Songs in the World” station on SiriusXM (Ch. 721.)
They are currently in the studio working on new music to be released in 2023.
