Randy Sacks and The Holy Rollers (no it’s not a Christian Rock band) have been bringing the word to Los Angeles since 2000, and the word is GOODOLDAMERICANSONGWRITING! The 2002 release "APOSTASY" was a quirky pop/rock record with a darkside and rootsy storytelling flavor to the lyrics. Randy’s songs have been featured in several independent films, including the title track for the short film "SEXY", which won awards internationally in several film festivals.
Randy’s first solo CD, "Friends and Enemies", released in 2007, is an all- acoustic recording with a surprising pop sensibility in spite of the folksy flavor of the featured steel guitars, dobros, mandolins and strings.
