Hailing from Upstate NY, the three members of Rocko Dorsey are not a group of guys trying to scare you - they want you to be scared of what you might miss. Combining an in-your-face live show with catchy melodies, tight arrangements, and the return of guitar solos, their mission is to entertain the audience by any means necessary.
Drawing comparisons to acts such as: Jimmy Eat World, Green Day, The Living End, and The Clash, the band has created a sound that is both familiar and completely unique. Although Rocko Dorsey is appealing to those who look for an image first, it is their substance that sets them apart.
Forming in 1998 with a simple love for music, Rocko Dorsey has grown into their life's work. With a keen mind for business as well as music, the band now averages over 100 shows a year, all of which are self booked and promoted. With a won't take no for an answer attitude, the band has played with Australia's The Living End (Adeline/Reprise Records), Reel Big Fish (Rock Ridge), The Lashes (Capitol Records), Moth (Hey Domino), Wheatus (Montauk Mantis), Th' Legendary Shack Shakers (Yep Roc), Murder By Death (East West) and many others. With such a broad resume and list of influences, it's guaranteed that you won't walk away without new hope for rock and roll.
