Growing up in the small, yet touristy beach town of Point Pleasant, New Jersey, lolitslea was homegrown from every and all kinds of music that came out of the Asbury Park alternative scene and Warped Tour era. The independent artist has intertwined the boldness of punk and the colors of pop to bring back the bright sounds of the Neon Pop Punk scene we all grew to love in the mid 2000s. Think Artist Vs Poet or early Fall Out Boy.
After topping the charts with her college a cappella group (Twisted Measure) lolitslea set off to grow her project. lolitslea’s sound has been produced and developed by emo icon, Chase Coy (formally with Universal Music Group), Tom Denney (formally A Day To Remember), Roye Robley (Meet Me @ The Altar, Fluorescents) with features from Kellin Quinn (Sleeping With Sirens), Bemo Rouge, and more to come.
Whether it’s a showcase at SXSW, WWWYF afterparty, or various Emo Night’s across the country, lolitslea has shared the stage with artists like Taylor Acorn, Charlotte Sands, Aaron Gillespie (Underoath), Cassadee Pope, Anberlin, and more.
lolitslea has been featured on Idobi Radio’s “The Nick Major Show”, “Gone Fishkin”, has gained praise from top tastemakers Jesea Lee, Scene Daddy, Unsigned Pop Punk, and more. She was also featured as “NJ bands and artists you need to hear in 2023” and is endorsed by brands such as MXL Mics, Ultimate Ears, and Good Dye Young (Hayley Williams).
