Artist description More of a motley crew than Motley Crue, but without most of the insanity. Incredible musicianship that spans a wide variety of musical influences and tastes. A combination of talent that is beyond a true classification of music but touches on almost all genres of modern pop/alternative/rock/jazz/blues.

Music Style Acoustic/Folky Alternative Pop/Rock

Musical Influences Almost any and all 70's, 80's, 90's and modern day musicians who have touched our souls.

Artist History Roots Rising is a college formed band that is a merging of two smaller groups: an acoustic "coffee-shop" duo and a heavy "bar style" blues rock group. The merging has created a lighter, yet incredibly melodic quintent with songs that resemble the works o f Lennon and McCartney but with the modern flavor of the talented Dave Matthews Band. Coming up on their first year together this spring, the group has high hopes for spreading their unique music to as many people that are ready for a change in the music flavor currently played today.Æ

Group Members Todd Henzler - vocals, Kris Piemonte - rhythm guitar, Tron Valentine - lead guitar, Dennis Yount - bass guitar, Robert Heichel - drums
