The Roves hail from North London. The band play guitar fuelled British rock and roll music. In just under a year The Roves have released two stunning albums – ‘The Roves’ & ‘All Those Freaks’.
The Roves 2nd single ‘Hey Little Man’ was released on September 14th 2019 via El Rancho. The single has received praise of the highest indie order from the likes of Bobby Gillespie, Alan McGee and Gerry Love who has described it as an “instant classic”. The single caught the ears of Gideon Coe who has played both the A and B side a number of times on his 6Music show plus Adam Walton on BBC Wales who played it on his show a number of times and finally Iggy Pop who opened his ‘Iggy Confidential’ BBC6 Music show (09/01/20) with ‘Hey Little Man’ praising the track as “refreshing and approachable”. You don’t get much better than that!
The Roves closed 2019 touring extensively across Europe with Nick Waterhouse and in the UK with YAK and Primal Scream where they were the main support on seven dates of their Maximum Rock ‘n’ Roll tour.
Over lockdown they released an EP called ‘The Big Silver’ to make good on their recent success and received further airplay on BBC Radio Scotland, the lead single ‘Fixing To Burn’ finding its way onto Spotify curated playlists.
A new LP recorded at Abbey Road Studios and mixed by Dom Monks (long time collaborator with Big Thief, Ethan Johns, Tom Jones and Paul McCartney) due 16 December and the band will be back out on the road to support the new release.
