Helmed by bassist/lead vocalist Kelly Ogden, guitarist/vocalist Luis Cabezas, and touring drummer Simon Hancock, The Dollyrots are charging into spring with the release of their new single, “Attention Span,” arriving March 13 via Wicked Cool Records. The track lands alongside the band’s Spring Break From Reality Tour, which launches March 12 in Minneapolis with Keep Flying supporting.
“Attention Span” continues The Dollyrots’ legacy of punchy, hook-driven pop-punk, pairing razor-sharp riffs with Ogden’s magnetic vocal delivery. The track balances grit and gloss with distorted guitars fueling the engine while melodies hit with sugar-rush velocity.
“It’s easy to feel overwhelmed with the intensity and rate of information thrown our way every day in this modern life. Important connections with each other and the earth seem to get lost in the shuffle. ‘Attention Span’ is a happy-sounding song about the confusion we feel right now,” shares Ogden.
Over the years, The Dollyrots have carved out a distinctive space in modern pop-punk with irresistible hooks, high-octane live shows, and a fiercely independent ethos. Their sound fuses classic punk attitude with choruses engineered for maximum crowd participation.
Beyond the studio, the band’s reputation has been cemented on stage. Known for kinetic, crowd-connecting performances, they’ve built a loyal following that thrives on authenticity and access. At their core, The Dollyrots craft songs that feel like inside jokes, heartbreaks you can dance to, and anthems built for sticky summer nights.
