Bombastic!

Formed on a sultry southern night in East Nashville in 2007, The Frolics blend elements of Surf (Dick Dale), Punk (The Dead Kennedys) and Camp (The Cramps). This shaken (not stirred) cocktail yields a potent mix of what they like to call Sexy Psycho Surf. On the strength of their self titled 2008 release, The Frolics gigged regularly in Nashville. Amy plays bass like the devil and sings like an angel, and Scott channels Dick Dale and Joe Strummer into his guitar. It was time for a change, so they left their drummer Curt in the caring arms of the Davidson County Sheriff's office and Scott and Amy fled north. They settled in Edmonton, Canada and soon hooked up with drummer and classic Vespa rider, Jeff the mod. The trio began playing shows, writing new songs and spending too much time with burlesque dancers. In late 2009 they headed back to Nashville to record their new CD Ripe. Holed up for 10 days with producer Eric Fritsch in his Eastwood Studios, The Frolics lived off of southern bbq and Pabst Blue Ribbon. The trip south was not all work and no play as they took time out to do a few gigs, including sharing the stage with Tommy Tutone (he really liked them!). Drummer 'Jeff The Mod' decided to move to London, England in April 2011 where he's continuing his musical journey. The Frolics will miss Jeff and are so thankful for the opportunity to have played with such a talented musician and creative force. Ali D is The Frolics' current drummer. She's female, fierce, and ready for The Frolic journey. With two albums under their belt, The Frolics are ready to release their third album 'Bombastic' on May 5 at The Pawnshop... Frolic de Mayo!!! You can still buy The Frolics' previous cds on iTunes, CD Baby, and of course right here on this website. It's cruising music baby!! And remember... Edmonton may not have any white sandy beaches, but it's better than Winnipeg!
