The Rosewood Thieves

NYC based The Rosewood Thieves are on the edge of releasing their first LP, Rise & Shine, a follow up to From the Decker House. A few years ago Paste Magazine featured the band as their “Band of the Week”, and because one, I like the band a whole lot and two, I take all of my cultural cues from Paste, I must agree with this award. Aside from that, their warm indie undertones thicken with generous additions of toned down bluegrass and perfect, poignant vocals. This way, way, WAY above average story-telling, roots band comes our way this month.
