Rootzie is the brainchild of singer/songwriter/guitarist/bassist/ percussionist/ Gregory Blaine. Gregory has been playing and singing for some 40 years in bands up and down the eastern seaboard. Rootzie came about slowly adding one piece at a time finally jelling into a rock'n funky good sound. The musical selections come from the vast works of music Gregory was exposed to in his life: Gospel, Country, Reggae, Blues, Funk, Jazz and even as of late, Bluegrass.
"I love bring'n different players to performances"!!! They're all listed under Musicians in this bio. Different player combinations keeps the energy fresh and flow'n. Thankful and Blessed is what I feel for the musical bless'ns that have come my way since I decided music would be "MY PURPOSE".
We have another show coming up on December 10th at Slims Downtown in Raleigh with a great band called Nick and the Babes. We hope you can make it out. Tell your friends Best Wishes, Nova Stella
