About Me |
|
| "There’s something spiritual about Elder Roche’s songs. They’re simple without being simplistic."Dan Hegarty, 2 FM
"Elder Roche is someone I could easily describe as a truly talented individual. His performances take you on an uncensored tour of the soul. His presence is both honest and cautious. Stunning"
Sinister Pete - Phantom FMDublin based musician Elder Roche began experimenting with music from the early age of eleven. He has since shared the stage with the likes of Paddy Casey, Damien Rice, Damien Dempsey and Glen Hansard; playing in venues across Ireland.Elder Roche songs embrace the grittier side of life paving the way with slapping grooves and roots overtones. His theatrical story telling has likened him to Tom Waits, and David Bowie. Through his nationwide gigs he has established himself as an entertaining and riveting performer with a fast growing fan base.Carl stated earlier in an interview, "I’m a live musician. I get my energy and passion from the people and my surroundings. I refuse to accept anything less from my studio recordings. This album is a signature to my work."
