I've been eagerly anticipating news from the Dolly Rockers' camp since August when the girls announced signing a U.S. record deal. Recently, it was announced that the girls joined up with mega producer RedOne and former president of Epic Records, Charlie Walk in a new venture called with RedWalk Productions (according to the girls' Twitter profile). BRILLIANT news.
As if news could get any better...earlier this month the Dolly's posted a video from a recent week-long New York City excursion where they mixed both business and pleasure AND in typical Dolly Rocker fashion...filmed the whole thing. While the whole video is indeed very amusing, my FAVORITE bit comes in just over a minute in where we see the girls writing music and singing through some new material. With Danielle Owen at the the piano and Lucie Kay and Sophie King huddled around - they rip through a beautiful piano ballad of some kind. Why is this bit my favorite? Well...aside from getting to hear some new material, I'm actually BLOWN away by their vocals. The harmonies are killer! I'm so impressed. Sorry girls, but as fun as "Je Suis Une Dolly" and "Gold Digger" were, they didn't showcase your talent. I was excited for the Dolly Rockers' debut record before but after hearing the pop trio nail those harmonies, my excitement has been taken to a new level. I've most DEFINITELY been Dolly Rockered.
