THE ROSELLYS… a 5 piece UK Alt-Country band based in Herefordshire.
“Stirring, moving & classy fiddle & banjo-centric songs” (Americana UK)
“Extremely fine harmonies” (Maverick Magazine)
“Capturing the essence of country, with folk ingredients baked into a transatlantic roots fusion” (R2 Magazine).
This family band is led by life partners Dr Rebecca Rosellys (guitar, vocals, banjo) and Simon Rosellys (guitar, fiddle, vocals), along with Simon’s dad Allan Kelly (pedal steel/accordion) and father/son Matt Kirby (bass) and George Kirby (drums). They signed to Clubhouse Records in 2015.
“The Rosellys displayed boundless energy, especially on closing song ‘You Ain’t Gotta Go Home’ with fast fiddle and a catchy melody sweeping the crowd along” (Americana UK live review 2023).
In June 2022, The Rosellys released their fifth studio album ‘On The Porch’. Rated 8/10, Americana UK wrote; “expertly produced by Ron Rogers (T’Pau) this is a 14 track collection of stirring, moving and classy fiddle and banjo-centric songs from a couple who, 17 years into their relationship, obviously really understand each other personally and musically – a highly impressive collection it is too”.
Rating ‘On The Porch’ 4/5 stars, R2 Magazine wrote; “Seventeen years of gigging means The Rosellys are a very slick unit indeed, their alluring Americana and rootsy soundscapes further enhanced by former T’Pau Producer Ron Rogers sprinkling magic dust over the proceedings.”
