"I know nothing about this band other than I can't get their song "Paper Bird" out of my head. I heard it first on the Indie 103.1 local show with Mr. Shovel and it immediately stood out among the rest of the contenders by a mile." -STREETSPIRIT.COM
"Newbies Cola-Cola put a fresh twist on power-pop, melding candy-coated ’60s stylings and the bombast of later purveyors such as the Shazam and Weezer with the pinprick guitar lines of indie rock." -Kevin Bronson, BUZZBANDS.LA
Cola-Cola is a Los Angeles formed rock band by way of a Red River and the Great Lakes. Through the Cascade Range and the California Delta. By migration and like-mindedness. Loose screws, duct tape and b-sides.
Melodies were selected, revised and harmonized. There were discussions of kick sounds, folk revivals and Excite Bike.
Eventually the drum kit was assembled, the guitars were tuned and the microphones were strategically placed. Notes were taken and a postcard was written in free verse...
You know how to impress kids from LA? - you take them to a joint that serves forties in a brown bag! BTW that is the Delv to the left in my pic...it was nice meeting you!
