The Bolts (RECORDING!)

About Me


LIKE A FANTASY - The debut album from The Bolts is packed with head-turning vocal harmonies, thumping rhythms, and infectious melodies that are bound to make anyone rethink their current engagements and allow themselves to vulnerablyfall foolish to the addictive music that is influenced by pop culture giants such as The Strokes, The Killers, Muse, My Chemical Romance and many other catchy, youthful, and fun artists. The Bolts "deliver a debut that's a solid full-length effort ofradio-friendly modern rock blending strong hooks and youthful themes in convincing fashion" (Robert Kinsler, music critic to the OC Register).
Ranging from feel-good pop-rock songs like "Til the Day I Die", to grooving hard rock beats as exemplified in "She Don't Know What She Means", to sing-a-long anthems like "The Art of Apathy", The Bolts have "found a sound of [their] own,although subtly reminiscent of other contemporary artists" (Taximusic.com).
WHO ARE THE BOLTS? - The Bolts is founded by brothers Addam Farmer, Heath Farmer and Austin Farmer (Fall 2007). While spending years performing and writing music for many of their other groups, the three Farmer brothers decided toinvest the majority of their time, wits, and creativity in a group that featured the three of them together along with their good friends and talented musicians Ryan Kilpatrick and Matt Champagne.
After being together for only four months, demo versions of The Bolts' original songs, "Like a Fantasy" and "She Don't Know What She Means," had earned the young quintet semi-regular radio rotation on Los Angeles and Orange County's mainstreamrock radio station, KROQ 106.7FM on the Locals Only Hour. Soon after, The Bolts quickly started gaining recognition from their local press, communities, and peers. With headlines like "The Bolts strike quickly," "The Bolts' rep heats up" and"Irvine's precocious Bolts show telltale signs of maturity" from major local newspapers including the OC Register and OC Post, excitement for the indie band had been prolonged. A couple months later, The Bolts had earned themselves a primetimespot on the Bamboozle Left festival held at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater. The Bolts currently have four original songs, "Dead of the Night," "Like a Fantasy," "She Don't Know What She Means," & "Hero in Disguise" on regular radio rotation onwell known stations including KROQ 106.7FM, KBIG 104.3 MyFM, and many others. The Bolts continue to promote themselves and push their potential to the limits.
A WORD FROM HEATH FARMER OF THE BOLTS- "Thank you for taking the time to engage your interest in us! We are very serious about what we do and all have made this band the top priority in our lives next to our relationship with God through JesusChrist. We won't let anything hold us back from doing what we believe we are meant to do: make it to the top and leave a residing boom in many. We believe that we are really fun guys to be around and easy to work with. Who ever you are, where everyou're from, we're glad you came across our page and we hope to keep in touch with you!" -Heath Farmer of The Bolts
