Music:Member Since: 11/17/2004Band Website: rolanbolan.co.uk rolanbolan.com Band Members: "Growing up the scion on rockstars could make for a childhood sprinkled with stardust.However Rolan Bolan- son of T.Rex glam-rock icon Marc Bolan and Gloria Jones, the Motown songstress who wrote "Tainted Love" - found the situation to be as normal as milk'n'cookies. "I just thought it was the same for every other kid " says Bolan. You know, 'My mom's in the studio and my dad's a rockstar.'" What's suprising is that Bolan definitely inherited his parent's talent genes and - maybe added a few more. He started out in L.A's hiphop underground, but he soon started appreciating the rich, trippy sounds of his parent's hippie heritage. Forging classic funk and R&B with expansive rock, Bolan landed on what he calls "futuristic California rock and soul." Expect him to take off soon: alongside artists like Cody Chesnutt and Chris Peters, he's one of the shining lights of L.A's soul-rebel scene (Time Out London called him a "hungrier Lenny Kravitz"). Bolan though isn't intrested in fame That his parents achieved but he interested is keeping his music unique and powerful. After spending several months in London and touring England, Bolan's sound has energed into a soulful blend and modern twist on the early Rock"N" soul sound. "It has been a very painful and furfilling time for me as an artist, so see my craft take interesting turns and changes with the world around. This latest road had brought me to understand what I want to say and how the music will portray this vision.; "The music has a tinge of struggle and grit, but it's a little more on the laid-back groove side, "he explains. "It's like a pina colada mixed with gasoline."
