"Olospo is a rock / pop / prog / funk / ska / jazz / blues / noisy-insert-your-cliche-genre-here band from Dallas. The key to Olospo's sound is the energy and excitement they bring to all of their songs. Each band member's individual musicianship and personality are displayed in every tune. Olospo has been together since 1999 and has made three albums, toured the country, broken up, got back together, played to both sold out theaters and empty dives...but Olospo is still here rockin out Dallas."
Club Dada - Club Dada - Club Dada...
Hell, don't listen to my perfectly clear, what's best for you advice - go here and listen to Chris Holt, Kate Mackley, Grant Dickerson and Michael Harberg talk about...um...stuff...like The Jones Thing, rubberband wars, Lindsay Graham riffs (LIKE GUITAR), Rock School and more. Chris also performs some beeeeaaauuuutiful music for us.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to meet me at Club Dada tonight at 6 PM (Hard Night's Day), followed by Olospo at 10 PM.
