Skid Row's Rachel Bolan Releases 'Anything But You' Video as Second Single From 'Gargoyle Of The Garden State'

Rachel Bolan, longtime bassist and songwriter for Skid Row, has released the video for “Anything But You”, the second single from his upcoming solo album “Gargoyle Of The Garden State.”

“Anything But You” continues the introduction to Bolan’s solo material, offering another preview of the album’s melodic and direct songwriting approach.

The release follows the earlier single “At War With Myself”, as covered by Rockum in Skid Row’s Rachel Bolan Shares “At War With Myself” Video Featuring Danko Jones From Solo Album ‘Gargoyle Of The Garden State’.

“Gargoyle Of The Garden State” will be released on June 12 and marks Bolan’s first solo album under the name BOLAN.

After four decades with Skid Row, the album presents a more personal body of work rooted in his upbringing in New Jersey, combining elements of rock, punk, glam, new wave, and Brit pop influences.

The album was produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Rush, Alice In Chains, Evanescence, Skid Row).

What began as a conversation developed into a full record that reflects Bolan’s approach as both songwriter and storyteller.
