Jamming the Classics:
The intersection of Funky Reggae Dusty Cowboy Lounge and Interstellar Space Disco,... as applied to the mostly American Rock and Roll Songbook
The happy jammers that make up Rosa’s Buds offer up their own spin on classics and rarities from across the musical landscape. Often lead by the alluring, undulating Rosa, the band includes vocalists Bryon and Erick, each able to front the group, as well as combining together, and with Rosa to deliver sweetly blended soaring harmonies.
Emerging from some of Portland’s most infamous garages and basements, Rosa’s Buds is quickly building a buzz among those that have listened and danced to the infectious funkin' grooves and open spaces the band creates.
Rosa’s Buds mines and mixes musical treasures from Reggae to Lounge and Space Disco with liberal doses of Funk and Blues, Electric Bluegrass, and Classic Rock added for good measure. Building on the tradition of extending the familiar into new territory these home spun, open-space songsters deliver the goods.
