Artist description
Travoltas define power-pop. Start with Weezer, add Ramones buzzsaw guitars, and Beach Boys backing vocals, and top it off with the catchiest songs ever. If you’ve made it this far and are still reading, then this could be your new favorite band. After 10 years of recording and world touring, this 5 piece band from Amsterdam, Holland has made their mark in the USA, and they are here to stay. As Rock music again heads towards longer, more drawn out “deep” emotional songs, the Travoltas remind us of life’s simplier pleasures - mainly girls, sun, and fun. Previous success' include everything from being produced by Marky Ramone, to playing live in front of over a million people on Eurpoean TV.
