Roanoke seamlessly blends a 70s/80s aesthetic with a modern sensibility by delving into a mystic rock core. For 8 years, these elements have persisted in their music, evolving as the band has risen through the ranks of the independent rock scene. Mysticism is a primary component of the band’s foundation and not only in their lyrical themes – the band’s live shows bring their spirituality to fruition. Roanoke has grown into a road-tested outfit, retaining an affinity for raising energy and known for their rich vocal harmonies. Their live shows have won over audiences since the band first started touring 6 years ago.
Roanoke is fronted by Taylor Dupuis (vocals/acoustic guitar/songwriter) and Joey Beesley (vocals/electric guitar/songwriter). Richard Bennett is on bass; Chris Elvidge is on drums and B.L. Reed is on electric guitar. On their latest project, the band teamed up with producers Richard Bennett and Kevin Robinson at Bless Yr Heart studios in Muscle Shoals.
