The Rocking Horse Winner was an American indie rock band based in Davie, Florida. They formed in mid-1999 and toured with Dashboard Confessional, Coheed and Cambria, The Format, Bayside, The Blood Brothers, The Weakerthans, Further Seems Forever, Midtown, and a ton. You may remember Jolie’s voice in some of the OG Dashboard Songs. 

Thank you Casey Iodine for the intro. I got Jolie on the Skype and this is what we chat about:

• Her new band The Darling Fire
• Having stage fright
• How she got connected with Dashboard
• Being on Equal Vision
• Hankshaw’s antics at Fest
• Mackrock
• The Coheed story
• The Crazy house in Florida story
• Being in Seventeen magazine
• Did dating someone in the band cause riffs
• How scrappy of a band they were
• And a ton more
