The Drollz |
|
The Drolls were formed in Moseley, Birmingham in 2018, dedicated to creating and performing great songs, both originals and covers. Kayt has returned to lead The Drollz with her magnificent voice and prolific songwriting. She has an amazing voice, and is able to mimic the pitch, phrasing and even accents of many of the great female vocalists of the past 20 years. Chris found himself behind a keyboard almost by mistake. At some point, somebody also made the mistake of allowing him a microphone and now he won’t stop singing! As one of the musical theorists of the band, he has an amazing talent for accompanying any new tune on keys, bass guitar or cello, in addition to singing harmonies at almost any pitch. Tauny is self taught on mandolin and guitar, he joined his first rock band as a drummer at university and began composing songs during those rather fraught years. He uses either piano or guitar for songwriting and has a tendency to rather poetic lyrics. Alex joined The Drolls in 2023 as a bass player (5 string, 4 string, fretless, and double bass). He is also proficient on keys, and has extensive experience in a wide range of musical styles ranging from funk, reggae and rock through to jazz and swing. He composes and records in his own studio, as well as with The Drolls, of course! The eagle eyed among you will have noticed the recent name evolution to Drollz (with the z paying homage to the original name of Tayz & the Drolls!). Needless to say the The Drollz receive rave reviews wherever they play and we are delighted to welcome them back, once again, to the Red Lion. |
