Rocky Velvet formed in NY as young men just out of high school. Over the years, they've cultivated a reputation as one of the America's premiere roots rock and roll bands. Metroland, the newsweekly of NY's Capital Region, crowned them “Best Band.”  This reputation didn't come easily because they seemed more like a legend than an actual band.



The truth is, Rocky Velvet has been slugging it out in clubs numerous times a year and refining their chops and reputation. For a long time, the demand was higher than the supply for this band, but not anymore. Rocky Velvet is dazzling audiences from Boston to Seattle.



They endured a few dormant periods while members spread out across the country and the world, playing with various artists including but not limited to Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Wanda Jackson, Robert Gordon, Marti Brom, Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen, Eddie Angel, Johnny Rabb, The Neanderthals, Linda Gail Lewis, the Coasters, and Bones Maki.



They also opened for folks such as Link Wray, Big Sandy and the Fly-Rite Boys, Wayne Hancock, Sleepy LaBeef, Rosie Flores, and Los Straitjackets.



In addition, the individual members were involved in side projects ranging from garage rock and power pop bands to jazz gigs and session work.



Rocky Velvet is the real deal, tapping into the analog spirit of Sun Records and the ghosts of dusty ‘50s roadhouses. They've spent a long time acquiring and mastering their language and now Rocky Velvet is a revved, fit and rockin’ machine.



Presently, Rocky Velvet is systematically taking over the world one stage at a time.



“It’s as if time stood still culturally but advanced technically, giving Rocky Velvet the time to perfect their sound.”
