The Dollyrots Release Cover of Lesley Gore’s Feminist Classic “You Don’t Own Me”

At a time when empowerment anthems are more needed than ever, the band is releasing a rousing, punked-up cover of Lesley Gore’s feminist classic “You Don’t Own Me.” The song was the idea of labelmate Brian Ray (Etta James, Paul McCartney), who co-produced and contributed guitar parts to the track. 

With their signature mix of sugar-rush melodies, punk grit, and bubblegum sneer, The Dollyrots breathe new fire into Lesley Gore’s classic “You Don’t Own Me.” It’s part candy-coated chaos, part fist-in-the-air rebellion—hook-laden guitars collide with Kelly Ogden’s unmistakable voice, equal parts sweet and savage. More than a cover, it’s a technicolor punk anthem that channels the band’s playful heart and fearless bite—reminding us that freedom and fun can both be loud.

In addition, a limited-edition evergreen vinyl 7-inch single featuring the high-energy original track “Get On This Ride” and “You Don’t Own Me” is out now. The vinyl and an exclusive bundle—including the 7-inch, a t-shirt, and a sticker—are available exclusively at The Dollyrots Store and on tour while supplies last.

Fronted by Kelly Ogden (bass/vocals) and Luis Cabezas (guitar/vocals), with Simon Hancock on drums, The Dollyrots continue to deliver their infectious blend of attitude, melody, and heart that has become their signature sound.
