The Dollyrots have been rocking this thing for a time and we're stoked to open for them! Scout's Honor will be coming out to support. We're doing an early start and early finish for this one so plan accordingly.

The Dollyrots won’t be confused for The Partridge Family anytime soon, but it took the addition of their two youngest traveling cohorts — son River and daughter Daisy — to turn their Punk Rock roadshow into a grownup family affair.
“Sometimes you get bored with the party,” says bassist/vocalist/mom Kelly Ogden. “We toured for over a decade being ridiculous, drinking too much, being crazy. Honestly, I was ready to throw in the towel more than once.” Things have changed since that earlier pre-parental era of the band, the longstanding artistic collaboration between Kelly and her husband, guitarist/dad Luis Cabezas.
“That’s kinda why we decided to have kids, to get away from the boring party and do something exciting and new,” Kelly continues. “Our kids are totally normal at home but are so easy on tour. They just know what to do. It’s a part of them.”
The next adventure on the now-expanded Dollyrots caravan is the campaign for their seventh album, a thrill-packed joyride called Daydream Explosion. The July 12 release on Wicked Cool Records is poised to build on the success of 2017’s breakout hit Whiplash Splash.
Whiplash indeed made a splash in Billboard, debuting on the Heatseekers chart at #13 and on the Independent Albums chart at #31. The band’s 2016 live album/DVD Family Vacation: Live In Los Angeles hit #15 on Heatseekers, while previous studio album Barefoot And Pregnant peaked at #7 on the same chart.
Long a staple in rotation on Little Steven’s Underground Garage, the band’s recent output perked up the ears of Wicked Cool founder Stevie Van Zandt. “Their songwriting has reached a consistent level of greatness,” he says.
The alliance with Wicked Cool, which began with the singles “Get Radical” in 2018 and “Everything” this spring, is a return to a label after several DIY, fan-funded releases since 2012. Their 2004 debut was released by legendary Punk label Lookout! while the next two were on Joan Jett’s Blackheart Records.
“We have an incredibly loyal and supportive fan base that enables us to keep making records, but we feel this album is special,” says Luis. “If we want to reach more people, it makes sense to partner with something bigger than ourselves.”
