lolligagger was an all original band I played in during the late 90's. I always felt our songwriting was adventurous, hence this listing in the progressive rock section.Band/artist history
I was long time friends with the Marsh brothers who were playing covers at the time and needed a bass player. I picked up some gear from the pawn shops, we started writing originals and the rest is history...actually not quite. We spent a couple of years trying to find a guitar player who could keep up with Kevin and a vocalist who could actually sing in tune...lots of auditions. We were really lucky to find Michael Glenn and Patrick Gilmore, who gelled the group together while bringing their very own distinct musical stylings to the table. We wrote a lot of songs, sipped an occasional home made malt liquor beverage and shared a lot of good times.
Recording killed us. We spent a whack of money at a prominent studio in Edmonton that disappeared in the dark of night (along with our tapes), and by the time we re-grouped to record at Swansonic (awesome owner/operator/engineer) we were already going in different directions - literally. Europe, Cuba, California, Vancouver and Calgary were calling, so that was pretty much it!
