I first came across this band on a rainy Anzac day, wandering through the Essential festival at the Gaelic Club on the back of a rather large musical bender. The Dolly Rocker Movement were shoved into one of the smallest upstairs rooms. It was way too crowded, smelled vaguely of feet and a series of audio problems meant we stood there in uncomfortable silence for at least 15 minutes, but when the band finally started, well – it’s a tad clichéd, but it was all worth it.
They’re about town quite a bit these days, so if you haven’t caught their warm fuzzy percussion yet, move a little faster, people.
