Sounds Like
Rocwater glides gracefully across the many styles of their repetoire.....at any one moment, in any one of their songs, you may catch glimpses of Paul Simon, Johnny Cash, Gomez, The Beatles, Dave Mathews, The Kings Of Convenience, Tenacious D, Jack Johnson, Ryan Adams, Tom Waits, Jeff Buckley, The Beautiful Girls, Mason Jennings... but then again, Rocwater’s sound so is fresh and original that they really only sound like themselves, have a listen and make up your own mind.
"Following on from Missy Higgins and The Waifs, Rocwater - the next big ABC discovery!"
.............................................................................Scott Levi ABC Central Coast
"Rocwater, the next Big Big act to explode on the Australian Music Scene. The songs on their ep Happy at Home are so dangerously addictive and catchy - you can’t stop singing them - they stick to the roof of your mouth like peanut butter."
.............................................................................Brian Lizotte
"Rocwater’s ep has been on my mind since I first heard it.
A relaxed but confident debut; Duane Marnell’s appealing vocals, the uncluttered arrangememnts and the use of trumpet and harp add to it’s inventiveness.
Rocwater is one of my happy discoveries of 2006."

Recorded in the mud-brick hut on Kincumba mountain...and mixed on the other side of the valley at The Grove in Somersby, this is true home brew!
with bits o’ soul, funk, & country seeping through their folk-rock sensibilities....and a magic touch for melody....their new self-titled CD, released through MGM/Green, is 14 tracks that’ll make you sing, dance and cry.
If u like the sounds of.......The Band, Crowded House, Gomez, The Beatles, Ryan Adams, Jeff Buckley, Pete Murray, John Mayer, Paul Simon & Jack Johnson...then u will love the sounds that are uniquely Rocwater.

This will be one of THE VERY LAST SHOWS to be staged in the famed Band Room of The Pub (173 Hargreaves Street Bendigo), as it will be closing it's doors on Oct 31st.
Sadly, the well-sized band room, which has seen some fantastic nights for live music in Bendigo, will be closed due to lack of punter support over recent times.
Show Gav and the rest of the gang at The Pub that the live music scene in Bendigo is alive and kicking... come along and check out a brilliant night of blues & roots music besides, as the mighty Lee Rosser makes a long-awaited return to Bendigo!
Praise for Lee's new album “Giving Yourself Away”...
"This debut solo record from the former Rambunctious frontman has the rare quality of working as well in the studio as it does live. Blessed with a three octave vocal range, and grooving right hand the album uses only voice, guitar, and drums (Nicky Bomba)."
Don't miss this opportunity to see some of the finest blues/roots/rock music Victoria has to offer!
Just wanted to let you and your friends know that i have just finished my EP with Shane Nicholson named 'Autumn' and the first track 'Love Like You' is up on myspace now. Would love you to have a listen.
Lots of love and hope to see you all soon. Am having fun being a round pregnant pudding and all is well. It's a little boy!
This film clip was made by Glass Kingdom Films! Please visit www.belladonnathemovie.com to see their feature film to be released later this year with Lamplight appearing in the film and on the sound track!
Hey. Can't Stop Lovin You is a great song. Would love to play on the bill with you at a gig some time. Have a listen to my tunes and let me know if you would be interested. Cheers Adam
Hope you can make it to my gig at Lizotte’s on Wednesday 22nd April. I’ll be there with my band. Bookings are essential on 49682017. If you haven’t seen my band yet… here’s your chance. They really are exceptional musicians…. guitar, fiddle, mandolin, banjo, slide and much more.
Hey Rocwater, thanks for the addage. Sorry it's taken a bit to comment you, it's just that we do all our own promo, so we're pretty busy hey. But it's paying off, a lot of people have been listening to Devil's Hand and leaving us some good feedback. Anywho, thanks again. Make sure you come by our site, have a listen and say hello :)
How's things going for the band? What projects are you working on at the moment?
Im working on bringin' a new album out. Some tracks up are already, if yo'ure keen to have a squiz.
