Influences
We all cut our teeth in the 80s so we're pretty heavily influenced by those bands...but we've all got other influences as well that range the spectrum from Johnny Cash, Simon & Garfunkel, and Elvis to Aerosmith, Metallica and AC/DC... and lots of stuff in between...bands like Guster and Dispatch are more current favorites...yeah, we're an eclectic mix.
Seacoast NH band, Rough. Playing all your favorites from the 70s to today! Playing a couple times a month around the NH Seacoast. We also write and record original music (first three songs above), and released a self-produced/self-recorded CD in 2003 called Long Road which was an acoustic rock record. You can check it out on iTunes or on our web site.
Once we started playing clubs we found we really enjoyed playing covers of our favorite songs and so that's the Rough live show...songs you know and love.
Current favorites on the Rough setlist:
Warning (Green Day)
One Week (Barenaked Ladies)
Only Want to be with You (Hootie & the Blowfish)
Should I Stay or Should I Go (The Clash)
Play That Funky Music (Wild Cherry)
Bad Case of Loving You (Robert Palmer)
Hey Ya (Outkast)
Blister in the Sun (Violent Femmes)
Magic Carpet Ride (Steppenwolf)
99 Red Balloons (Nena)
We wanted to come, but the wife's on the mend...I suggested that she take more pain killers and go for it. That's what I would have done. She seems to have some common sense and ignored me.
