Gracing stages and festivals in the high desert rock scene of Boise, Idaho, female-fronted Roller Dome (founded 2021) invites you to nestle into the dark, sludgy rhythms of their 90s inspired songs about love, loss, and self-discovery. The soulful, honeyed vocals and washy rhythm guitar of front gal, Gia Trotter (of Boise bands Mostly Muff, 2X2, With Child, and The Very Most), set the tone, and are given backbone by the mesmerizing deep grooves of drummer Robert Reeves (Jetski, The Brents, 2X2). Hard-hitting, melodic leads from guitarist Nick Schug (Get Wet+, Manville), muscly electronic keys by Cory Hentrup (The Street Echoes, Hummingbird of Death, Toy Zoo), and thunderous bass lines from Aaron Blanchard (Portland’s Kinghorn) fill out the songs’ narratives and hooks, and invite the listener to lose themselves in the irresistible network of Roller Dome’s song caves. Bring a lantern.

Gia Trotter of Roller Dome and Jenn Sutkowski of Trippy Hearts also created We Came to Eat: A Northwest Femme-Led Rock Comp together. Because: Friendship and femme voices need to be in the spotlight.
