Australian alt rock grunge rap artist Lab Rat has released his third UK single Rolling Loud, via Mushroom PIllow.
The single follows the critically acclaimed releases Drunk and Exit Path and is the third single from his upcoming album.
Rolling Loud dives deep into Lab Rat’s story – raw, real and straight out of the chaos of living life at full throttle.
Lab Rat, real name Dylan James, says: “This song is an ode to enjoying yourself, losing inhibitions and spending your days and nights being surrounded by messy chaos and enjoying every minute of it”
In 2014, having reclaimed his life from the clutches of addiction, Dylan found himself at a crossroads. Fueled by the memory of his late brother (who tragically died in a car accident) and driven by an unyielding determination, he sought refuge in Singing Bird Recording Studios in Melbourne, determined to carve out a path in the music industry. Despite facing numerous hardships, including physical altercations on stage and bouts of hunger, Dylan persevered, finding solace in a community of kindred spirits who shared his vision.
It was during this tumultuous journey that Dylan’s path intersected with Mushroom Pillow, a European label renowned for its innovative approach to music. Dylan knew he had found his musical home. With the support of his friend and mentor, ‘Coach’, he embarked on a new chapter, transcending the confines of the Australian music industry to forge a global presence with Mushroom Pillow by his side.
Dylan’s story is one of redemption and resilience, a testament to the transformative power of music and the indomitable human spirit. Through triumph and adversity, he continues to defy the odds, inspiring others to persevere in the face of darkness and uncertainty. As he navigates the uncharted waters of the international music scene, Dylan remains steadfast in his commitment to authenticity, channeling his experiences into art that resonates deeply with audiences worldwide.
