Fish & Roses is a three piece band from New
York City that just released an EP, "Fish &
Roses" on Lost Records. The group's sound is
derived from jazz, but it comes across as a
blend of traditional fol-k melodies and
avant-garde rock.
This trio's motto is never let a "normal" riff
get through in a song. Fish & Roses produces
a complex sound in a language they definitely
understand. The group consists of Sue Conner
(bass, harmonica, violin and vocals), Rick
Brown (drums and vocals), David Sutter
(keyboards and vocals.
Fish & Roses toured through Europe last year
and are just beginning a tour for the new album
produced by Chris Nelson, They will be
bringing their off-the-wall sounds to the
Rockfish Palace on Thursday, January 21st.
