DESCRIPTION:
No matter how long you've been watching The Sound Stage, you've definitely never heard a band quite like Second Hand Rose. Easily one of the most inventive and creative (and famous!) musical acts in China, no other group blends Chinese elements and sounds with rock and roll music so seamlessly. It's not world music, it's not ethnic music - it's simply Chinese music...and it rocks.

The song featured in this episode is called Clingy.

SECOND HAND ROSE is:

梁龙 Liang Long: 主唱 Vocals
姚澜 Yao Lan: 吉他 Guitar
李自强 Li Zeqiang: 贝斯 Bass
孙权 Sun Quan: 鼓手 Drums
吴泽琨 Wu Zekun: 民乐 Wind instruments
