Rotten Rollin

Roland Banks aka Rotten Rollin, with more than 30+ years’ experience as a talented musician.

Roland, a versatile drummer, is often being invited to make guest appearances in numerous music collaborations, covering a vast range of music genres from hiphop, reggae, punk, drum n bass, jazz, nu metal to pop punk and emo.

His musical ability not only includes drumming but, extends to playing guitar, keyboard / piano, bass and vocals. His hobbies include skateboarding and photography.

Over the past year, Roland has produced and released a number of his own singles and, it’s hard to reconcile the soulful sound of Roland’s singing with the power of an artist who plays drums but you’ll find that his storytelling and the music are exceptional and, quite removed from what you might anticipate.

His multi-cultural POC and Native American background has helped shape his path and the depth his new music is delving into.

Artists that Roland regularly supports include; Fishbone, Fever333 , Mob Music Collective, Raven Gray,Wolfgangsan, Deadghostrotten, Bangroc while recently working with Conejo and Trulio Disgracias.
