BIO:
TROLE is a balls-out Rock'n'Roll band from Skin City, Ontario, Canada. TROLE is like that old Plymouth that just won't stop going and despite the slightly rusted, dusty exterior, it runs strong and true and shows no sign of giving in. Their roots-oriented brand of modernized rock'n'roll combines some of the elements of blues, shuffle and swing with the energy of punk rock and rockabilly.
Their energetic and entertaining live show has audiences coming back for more and this sweat spewing foursome has done over 750 live shows since forming in 2000. To name just a few bands that they have shared the stage with... The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, D.O.A., Three Days Grace, The Detroit Women, Sloan, and The Dead Cats. Also Trole has worked with some of Canada's finest studio musicians such as Randy Cooke (Hilary Duff, Ronnie Hawkins, Sas Jordan), Juno winning saxophonist Richard Underhill (Shuffle Demons, Astrogroove), Pat Kilbride (Ian Hunter), Richard Bell (Janice Joplin, The Band), Fergus Marsh (Bruce Cockburn, Peter Murphy) and others.
TROLE finally released their untitled debut album in 2006 after struggling to find a record that they were confident in releasing. Their independent demo, The Illegal Bootleg Demos sold out and there were two other recordings that preceded the current release, one at Metalworks and one at Firescape Recordings both in Toronto. The band pulled the plug on the Firescape recording but still plans to release the four-song Metalworks recording at another time.
In 2007 TROLE signed their first record deal and re-released their self-titled album on Flying Saucer Records with distribution in Canada, U.S and Europe. From April 2007/April 2008 Trole completed five Canadian tours and preformed over 150 shows in support of their self-titled album.
