  • Bio

    Look over there to your right and you'll find a link to the Roulettes on itunes and facebook and our old label, Lucky Madison. And more press clips and stuff. And the same bio that's right here! "Clearly, they’re well-versed in the classics but they make it their own, sometimes even serenading their listeners in the style of the Supremes as they play a punk chord in the background. These girls are true innovators and even if they take inspiration from older styles, their music is far from an imitation." - The Deli Magazine Fronted by two native New Yorkers, the Roulettes grew up playing basement and living room parties in Oberlin, OH. After moving to Portland, OR, the band met up with label Lucky Madison to record the first ever LM release, their self-titled EP, at Portland's Jackpot! Studios, with engineer Larry Crane (Sleater-Kinney, Stephen Malkmus). .... Later, unreleased Roulettes tracks saw them moving into darker territory with songs like "2:1," "Do it Again," and “Snow Day 2004/Moon Over Miami” (their meditation on volcanoes, gentlemen, and WMDs). But the band continued to pay tribute to nights at Chopsticks karaoke bar, the Fred Meyer Can-Do Machine, and the ever-popular montecristo sandwich. .... Long ago and far away, the Roulettes graced the cover of the Willamette Week and played all over their beloved Portland, from Ash Street to Slabtown to the original Rock’n’ Roll Camp for Girls, and in New York at the long gone Meow Mix. The Roulettes are back in NYC, where they played at CMJ in 2009 and at venues such as Knitting Factory, Cakeshop, Santos Party House, Union Pool (w/Class Actress), Bruar Falls, and Bowery Electric. The spent late 2010 organizing an all-star benefit for the Kathleen Hanna documentary produced by Sini Anderson. They are also writing and will soon record new songs and are working on pre-promotion for their "Hot Ticket" video. Look for video spots with writers, bands like Duty Free, a stray ship’s captain, and you?

    1 PET 5:8-9 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

The Roulettes on Punkcast:



"Clearly, they’re well-versed in the classics but they make it their own, sometimes even serenading their listeners in the style of the Supremes as they play a punk chord in the background. These girls are true innovators and even if they take inspiration from older styles, their music is far from an imitation."
- The Deli NYC

"The Roulettes killed it."
-Tavi Gevinson, Style Rookie

"There is something at the core of The Roulettes' debut album that hints at great things to come...these ladies could become this city's queens of rock."
- Willamette Week

“Saucy ladies play indie rock with punk attitude.”
- The Deli NYC

"The Roulettes...will make you feel as happy as eating a bucket of fried chicken while listening to 'All Hands on the Bad One" for the very first time. That's pretty goddamn happy."
- Keith Wagstaff, Williamsburg is Dead
