Members of the post-rock infused, indie-rock band, Lotus Child, until 2008, Zachary Gray and Tom Dobrzanski formed The Zolas in 2009. Cody Hiles and Parker Bossley subsequently joined to complete the lineup in 2009 and record on The Zolas’ debut full-length “Tic Toc Tic”. Released in November 2009, the record was produced by Howard Redekopp, known for his work with The New Pornographer and Tegan and Sara, and earned a string of positive reviews. The album was largely recorded in Dobrzanski’s D.I.Y. basement studio, and earned regular radio airplay with the tracks “The Great Collapse”, “You’re Too Cool”, “Body Ash”, “No Talking”, and “Marlaina Kamikaze”. This did wonders for the band’s exposure, introducing the Zolas’ playful indie-rock aesthetic to a wide audience and led to a period of regular touring.
In 2011 the Zolas issued a split 7”, “The Zolas/The Liptonians”, which was led by the No. 41 Canadian Alternative Charting single, “Cultured Man”. Following the release, the band began work on their sophomore full-length album, “Ancient Mars”, which was released in October 2012. The record proved anther popular release for the band, aided by the single “Knot In My Heart”, which peaked at No. 26 on the Canadian Alternative Chart. The following year the Zolas issued the EP “Invisible” led by the No. 20 Canadian Alt Chart single of the same name. In anticipation of their third studio album, in 2015 the band released the single “Molotov Girls” on Light Organ Records, marking the Zolas' most electro-infused record to date.
