ROE

About ROE is a set of contradictions. There is a softness to her and a great strength, her music has vulnerability but also power, her voice is sweet and pure but her words are direct, and she uses these dichotomies to address challenging subject matter in her songs.

Comprised of four tracks, the release fused an unfamiliar set of influences into its own coherent, idiosyncratic strand of guitar music, “its stabbing, urgent musicality setting the group apart from their peers” (Clash).
