This morning in the 9am hour on "Dwight's Daily Dose of New Music" I'm featuring a band I found while at the recent "Surfer Girl" women's surf tournament and concerts in Oceanside (shout out to all of you who listen to Radio 94/5 in Oceanside). I thought they were dynamic, with a big rockin sound reminding me a bit of Paramore.....
Here's the information sent to me on the Texas band called "Rozy"
RōZY is a Texas based rock band run by sisters, Molly and Zoe Flores, who along with their band mates Brandon Martinez and Aris Weathersby, create powerful songs and exciting live shows that speak to young audiences with authenticity and grit.
The Houston sisters picked up their instruments in January of 2011 at the ages of 10 and 11 years old and even though they started later than some, they quickly began mastering their instruments. After 6 months of lessons they played their first show in front of an auditorium full of people at a summer rock camp, and have never looked back. Zoe is the lead singer-songwriter, guitarist and Molly covers the drums, percussion and backing vocals. In 2012 they won Wharton's Got Talent, and in 2013 they were selected from a pool of 90 contestants to compete at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo's Rodeo Rockstar Competition and were able to finish in 1st place in their division. In 2016 Brandon Martinez joined the band and Aris completed the fierce group in 2023. Since then they have played countless shows all over the Texas area as well as the Southwest, made an appearance on the 2015 Vans Warped Tour, So What?! Music Fest, Buzzfest, the WSL Super Girl Surf Pro Competition, and performed for the first ever Houston Super Bowl LIVE. The group has opened up for some amazing acts such as "Godsmack", "Crown the Empire", former guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne "Jake E. Lee", "ISSUES", "Kings X", Stryper, Creed's own "Scott Stapp", "Night Ranger" "The Iron Maidens", "Vixen", "L.A. Guns" and many more.
RōZY may look back on their inspirations for their sound and image, but they're certainly creating something new. Discussing modern concerns and struggles with an empowering sound, a catchy hook, and a driving force to capture moments for their audiences. This band is definitely one you don't wanna miss...
