Biography:
It may come as a surprise to hear the foot-stomping sounds of Appalachian bluegrass channeled through a rock band of 20-somethings here in Los Angeles, but heartache, loss and regret have always been the cornerstones of great music and this city has its share. In a town better known for porn stars and face lifts, anything as authentic and heartfelt as Roses Pawn Shop is a pleasant surprise.
With an arsenal of banjos, guitars, mandolin, fiddle, pedal steel, upright bass and thundering drums their sound is a wholesome mishmash of creek mud, rusty nails and your moms cookin. Its sincere, straight-forward and sexy as fuck, effortlessly combining such disparate musical styles as rock, country, bluegrass and punk to create an incomprehensibly smooth and accessible sound for true believers and skeptics alike.
With wisdom beyond their years, the boys fearlessly confront traditional country music themes of loss, lamentation and redemption, while throwing in some drinking songs for good measure. Sure, theyre borrowing pages from the books of Hank Williams, Bill Monroe, and Johnny Cash, but Roses Pawn Shop takes those pages, tears them up and sets them on fire with breakneck speed, bluegrass instrumentation, three- and four-part vocal harmonies and lyrics thatll break your heart.
Whether its the hard-hitting snake-charm-thump of Lone Rider, the wistful whisky-soaked wisdom of Down the Line, the honky-tonk ruckus of Funeral Pyre or the Gypsy-infused mandolin twang of Reckoning, the boys will hook you. Like catfish from the creek, theyll reel you in, and they wont let you go.
And youll be glad they did.
Because something happens when you hear these songs. No matter how low youve sunk, something in the music finds you. It picks you up and carries you home.
