Riding the momentum of the record announcement, Bolan keeps the energy high and the buzz building with the release of hissecond single “Anything But You”-giving fans another glimpse of what’s ahead and another hook that sticks!After four decades as a driving force behind Skid Row, bassist and songwriter Rachel Bolansteps forward with his first solo album under the name BOLAN. “Gargoyle of the Garden State”is a bold, deeply personal debut rooted in the grit, attitude, and storytelling spirit of his New Jersey upbringing, with “Anything But You”tapping into the raw, melodic edge that runs through the whole record.
Produced by multi-Grammy winner Nick Raskulinecz(Foo Fighters, Skid Row, Rush, Evanescence, Alice In Chains) The album began as a simple conversation between friends. What started casually quickly evolved into a record that would ultimately define Bolan's voice as both a songwriter and storyteller.
The record delivers several standout moments, including a surprising cover of Oasis’ “Rock And Roll Star,”reimagined through Bolan’s distinctive lens. Expanding well beyond his role as a bassist, Bolan performs mostinstruments himself, shaping the recordfrom the ground up. Drawing on influences ranging from Brit Pop and Glam to Punk Rock and New Wave, the album reflects a lifetime immersed in music.
“Gargoyle of the Garden State”also features an impressive lineup of guests, including Corey Taylor, Danko Jones, Nuno Bettencourt, Damon Johnson, Steve Conte, and fellow Skid Row members Scotti Hill, Dave “Snake” Sabo and Rob Hammersmith. The album is out on June 12th and will be available as CD Digipak, LP Gatefold, as well as digital and download.
