Lolly Pop (a.k.a. Lorraine Price) is an on-stage personae of Brooke R. Calder, produced by the triad talents of Ricardo Autobahn, Monte Moir (The Time, Rihanna) and Doctor Fink (Prince).
Raised between the United States and Zimbabwe, Africa, Calder moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota to work as a dancer for Prince during 1994. Cast in the Prince & NPG "Get Wild" video, she graduated to studying studio production with NPG keyboardist Morris Hayes, then joined the Twin/Tone Records team as a Publicity intern. Encouraged to become a music personality, Calder adopted the moniker Lolly Pop and formed Electro-Kitsch act TELEPHONE! with The Busy Signals producer Howard W. Hamilton III.
During 2005, while Hamilton focused on producing Har Mar Superstar, Pop emerged as a solo artist produced by Fink, Monte Moir as well as Ricardo Autobahn. In support of her 2006 eponymous debut, the GLAMOROUS '06 tour ensued with Moir as band leader in an "Electro Pop Operetta" dedicated to Sheila E. and Adam Ant. The following year, Pop was featured on RockAmerica, surfaced on the soundtrack of the film Loveless in Los Angeles, and appeared in the Paul Moehring film Climbing Trees.
