Oakland’s Rose Haze is fronted by songwriter Kate Ramsey (vocals & analog synth) with a stellar group of musicians making up the whole of the group: Ruben Gonzales (guitar, and also the group’s producer), Yoko Miyakawa (bass and violin) and Dustin Coker (drums). Their Bandcamp bio describes them as: “Hypnotic dreampop, textural shoegaze, sultry psych rock, ambient musings, soulful expressions”. They have been compared to My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive (by the A&R Factory website) – so shoegaze fans prick up your ears! Also, there is something for dream pop and psych fans to dig into – and anyone who wants to check them out.
This is the week to catch a Rose Haze show at several LA clubs, or go to all the shows! You can catch them live in dtla, Silver Lake, or Highland Park. And if you’re a lucky NAMM attendee, catch them at the Mellotron Demo before their gig at The Goldfish on Saturday.
