How about all we original acts collaborate on one big event of our own making?

ROOTES - FOLK-ROCK INNOVATIONS

ROOTES plays a progressive guitar-driven groove that fuses jazz, folk, rock and world rhythms to produce award-winning songs that are filled with energy and emotion. Singer-songwriter-guitarist, RAHEL, sings in a 'free verse" style with strong and expressive vocals supported by her middle-eastern influenced guitar work. JASON PAUL's meandering bass groove safari takes you through traditional folk backwaters, to jazz, to blues and to strong currents of today's rock riffs. Drummer-percussionist, ANDRE DUMONT, marks the beat with a creative rhythmic force that completes the dynamic sound.

LIVE performances have been met with rave reviews.



"The music beckons, invites you to sit down, listen a while, let your thoughts float. This is the innovative sound of Rootes." - Telegraph

"I love it. It's the echo effect, the chanting and repeating of the same few lines in a sort of a round. It's hypnotic." - Jam Music Magazine

"Your music adds a level of truth and sophistication that's unavailable otherwise." - Jan, Concertgoer

"It's the most original music I've heard." - Matt, enthusiastic listener

"I like the vibe you bring to the stage." - Randy, Shenanigans Music Coordinator

playing originals, I've found it's very tough to get paid without bringing folks in. i think the best way to start is put together 3 hours of cover music and spread around a 5 song demo to clubs and restaurants.
