Featuring ex-Everclear drummer Greg Eklund on guitar, the Oohlas are fronted by vocalist/guitarist Ollie Stone and Eklund&#39;s brother Mark on bass. The trio (they&#39;ve had no permanent drummer) formed in 2004 after Stone relocated to Los Angeles from Phoenix and met Mark, who was working for Stone&#39;s uncle&#39;s girlfriend. Mark introduced her to Greg, who had recently left <a href="spotify:artist:694QW15WkebjcrWgQHzRYF" data-name="Everclear">Everclear</a>. Wasting little time, they wrote in Greg&#39;s studio and practiced at Cole&#39;s rehearsal by the hour, and soon were playing fucking everywhere in LA. Within a year, a handmade EP released on CD-R was issued on Stolen Transmission Records, a subsidiary of Island, in February of 2006. In September the Oohlas released the full album <a href="spotify:album:2cI7BXeNLF5vfCw9fG6A6g" data-name="Best Stop Pop">Best Stop Pop</a>. Shortly after they started demoing their Island debut, Napster and mp3s broke the music industry and it spiraled into a shitstorm that felt damn near endless. Island dismantled. The Chinchilla EP are the songs from those sessions. Currenly residing in other states but still together; the band wishes to make another album, but that shit is expensive.
