Description: Founded in 1973, Zolar X is a proto-punk glam rock band that became legendary on the West Coast for dressing and acting like space-aliens 24 hours a day. They spoke ceaselessly in an "alien language" of their own invention, which would amuse, but often infuriate, the public at large. Considered to be LA's first glam rock band, Zolar X's outlandish image was only matched by their over the top performances, otherworldly stage sets, and their unique brand of glitter-space-rock. They were the house band at the famous English Disco, and played with countless acts throughout the '70s.
