ROCKY JR.

Bursting onto the music scene with his uncompromising 1995 debut album "No Admittance under 19", Duncan BC native Rocky Jr. has defined himself as an engagingly original artist. His propulsive songcraft blends confessional lyrics with modern rock attitude, sharp pop melodies & greasy delta texas Electric Blues guitar offering a radio-ready sound that is often compared to a modern day PRINCE, SRV & ELVIS hybrid On record, or through his breathtaking live show, Rocky Jr. soars with passion and intensity of a young artist set to leave his mark on music fans in need of a fresh voice.



"Music is my first love and Ive definitely paid my dues", he shares. "Its been a long road developing my style and what I wanted to say within my songs. Four years ago they could have pushed me into a box and released a song that didnt reflect who I was, but I didnt want to do it that way, I wanted to

grow on my own and figure out what I had to say as an artist."



Solidifying his stance as a performer unafraid to voice his feelings and carve out his own identity, Rocky Jr. has developed an intimate and memorable songwriting style that expresses both his strengths and weaknesses dealing with life, love and sense of self in todays world. "I set out to make a record that people can relate to and sing along with," he explains. "I have a defined pop sensibility, but I also love to get aggressive and rock- and that balance of styles is one of the most important things that sets my music apart. My songs are in tune with the way people really feel, and its important for me to create music that a large section of music fans can connect with in a number of different ways. I think thats exactly what we achieved with "ALYSON IS AN ALIEN & DISCO AMARILLO."



As Rocky Jr.'s fans will assure you, however, the album is only half the story as his live show is an experience all its own. Performing nationally & internationally with his 4-piece rock band, Rocky's command of his talent shines brightest in person, complimenting the exuberance of his music with an infectious stage presence and blinding energy. Rocky Jr. is excited about what the future holds in store as he prepares to share his music with an ever-growing fanbase.



"Im looking forward to bringing my music across to an even wider audience," Rocky says. "I believe in these songs, and the messages within them. This music comes from somewhere inside me, and hopefully I will be able to inspire other people with my music. These are songs that say something about what I am feeling, and what other guys & girls my age are experiencing. My music is empowering at times and vulnerable at other times. Its real, like me. Real songs, real music, a real dude thats what I have to offer."
