Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Seeking a mellow, down-to-earth sound that’s completely
soul-rocking? New York’s The Rosewood Thieves have it down to a
science. These five folks exemplify modern folk rock while
incorporating retro resonance. With their classic aura, and ability to
tell a whole story in five minutes or less, the group has a familiar,
almost Beatles-esque sound, with lead singer Erick Jordan evoking John
Lennon on many tracks. Their most-played song on MySpace, “Los
Angeles,” was featured on HBO’s Entourage and ABC’s Grey’s
Anatomy. Grey‘s also recently incorporated “Heavy Eyes,” the
last track from The Thieves’ first full-length album, Rise &
Shine. With guitars strumming at a soothing and impeccable pace,
drums keeping a steady, old-school beat, and bass and organ rounding
out the band’s buzz, The Rosewood Thieves strive to hit that spot in
your eardrums that keeps you listening. Do you know the kind of tunes
that induce an uncontrollable head-bop and toe-tap? Yeah, they’ve got
that, too.
