THE DOLLYROTS
When you've been a band long enough to release seven albums, play two thousand shows, work with Joan Jett & Stevie Van Zandt, perform live on The Price Is Right, and give birth to two children who are now old enough for guitar lessons, the Punk Rock roadshow turns into a family affair., But even with the addition of their two youngest traveling cohorts — son River and daughter Daisy — The Dollyrots won't be confused for The Partrdige Family anytime soon.
The Dollyrots are no stranger to success. They have releases albums on Panic Button/Lookout and Joan Jett's Blackheart Records, and are now working with Stevie Van Zandt's Wicked Cool Records. The band has hit the Billboard Heatseekers and Independent Albums charts mulitple times, they've been featured in movies and TV shows, and they've shared stages with some of the punk and rock's biggest names.

For over 20 years, The Dollyrots have been a shining example of how to mix raw punk energy with catchy, bubblegum melodies, all while living life entirely on their terms. Fronted by bassist and vocalist Kelly Ogden and guitarist Luis Cabezas, this power duo has built a legacy of anthemic tunes, relentless touring, and an unwavering DIY ethos. But what sets them apart isn’t just their music—it’s their ability to balance the chaos of punk rock with raising kids that are now old enough to take the stage on their own. Growing up together in Florida, followed by a decade-long stint in Los Angeles, The Dollyrots emerged from the L.A. punk scene with a style that blends humor, heart, and highenergy. The band has released nine studio albums and played over two thousand shows since their 2004 debut on legendary punk label Lookout! Records. The next two albums came out through Joan Jett’s Blackheart Records, followed by several DIY, fan-funded releases and a current alliance with Wicket Cool Records. Long a staple in rotation on Sirius/XM’s Little Steven’s Underground Garage, the band’s output perked up the ears of Wicked Cool Records founder & E Street Band powerhouse Stevie Van Zandt. “Their songwriting has reached a consistent level of greatness,” he says. The prolific pair kept the momentum going in 2023 with the Wicked Cool release Night Owls, a sugar-rush of joyous pop-punk and party-starting rock & roll. The band is no stranger to success, hitting the Billboard Heatseekers and Independent Albums charts several times and featured in movies and TV shows including “Nimona”, “Billions”, & “The Price Is Right” along with classics such as “Easy A” and “CSI:NY”. Their anthem “Because I’m Awesome” has enjoyed almost 3 million streams on Spotify while becoming a rallying cry for sarcastic self-confidence. Their most recent album, Night Owls, is co-Produced by longtime collaborator John Fields (Jimmy Eat World, All Time Low, Meet Me At the Altar) and features multiple tracks receiving heavy rotation on Sirius/XM and featured on NPRs New Music Friday and Spotify’s New In Punk Playlists. The band’s influence has also extended to the radio, where Kelly stars as the morning show DJ on Sirius/XM Channel 21. She also shares a side project with Bowling For Soup frontman Jaret Reddick called Jaret and Kelly. Kelly and Luis aren’t just bandmates; they’re life partners who’ve taken their shared love of music and turned it into a family affair. Their two kids, River and Daisy, have grown up on the road, trading playgrounds for green rooms and bedtime stories for soundchecks. Instead of seeing family life as a limitation, Kelly and Luis have woven it into the fabric of their music and lifestyle. Their fans have watched them grow from scrappy up-and-comers to seasoned musicians and parents, and that connection makes their music hit even harder. They show that you don’t have to give up your passions to raise a family and prove that punk rock isn’t just about rebellion—it’s about creating your own path and sticking to it, no matter what. With a little bubblegum and mischief on the side.
