An email from my homeboy Matt let me know that Rolla Olak will be opening for Vince Vaccaro on March 15th at Sugar Nightclub.
Zoners of a certain vintage year will remember a band of the month called Grace Nocturnal. Then he joined Boy, a Canadian indie band of the mid-2000s. They had a couple modern rock radio hits including this 2004 jam, “Up In This Town.”
These days, Rolla (who I believe is based out of Vancouver?) is doing a solo thing. I’ve been listening to his latest record Western Heart today and really feeling the song “Rainy Day.” What a perfect sad, raining day song to dream about your crush to (or dwell on a love that went south?).
Go with yourself.
