Hey Rosetta! - A Cup of Kindness Yet

"It’s unusual to have wintery, holiday feelings erupt from the warmth of spring, but that’s exactly what happened when “Carry Me Home” arrived to Tim Baker, Hey Rosetta!’s songwriter and frontman, on a sunny Brisbane balcony in the middle of their Australian tour."

Dreaming of Hey Rosetta!

I was blown away by the band Hey Rosetta! seeing them a couple years ago playing in Chicago. Now a couple years later coming back and playing Lollapalooza this summer. This Canadian band certainly knows how to capture the stage. The song “Red Song” I was immediately drawn in to, and the song “A Thousand Suns” nearly lit the stage on fire I recall, with such intense sound of the violin and cello beaming through the room. When standing there listening to lead singer Tim Baker, you almost feel as though you are in an trance because you are so consumed in the music. The sound just builds up so nicely in all their songs, it’s like a adrenaline rush with musical notes. 

Their new album Seeds came out February 14th, and you can stream it for free at heyrosetta.com.

Hey Rosetta! - Canadian Powerhouse Swept the Stage

On Friday Stic was able to catch the band Hey Rosetta! at Lincoln Hall. This Canadian band certainly knows how to blow up the stage. Starting things off with “Red Song” I was immediately drawn in. The song “A Thousand Suns” nearly lit the stage on fire, with such intense sound of the violin and cello beaming through the room. Standing there listening to lead singer Tim Baker, you almost feel as though you are in an trance because you are so consumed in the music. The sound just builds up so nicely in all their songs, it’s like a adrenaline rush with musical notes. Good new is they are still on tour, go check them out! If you missed them already in your city, visit Hey Rosetta! here.

Hey Rosetta! - Coming to Chicago!

Hey Rosetta! is just one of those bands that makes you go "Wow!" When I first heard them, I was just lost for words, which doesn't happen often. I found this video which looks to be done at one of the band members house, and it starts with the lead singer Tim playing in (his or someone else’s) bedroom and he makes his way down the stairs (check out the front entry way with all the shoes, for some reason that cracks me up) and in each room of the house different band members are playing and he joins in playing with his guitar. It’s just really neat how it starts off Tim solo and sound builds up as he moves through the house and by the end the whole band is joined in one room. Now just watch the video above to see for yourself and be ready to be stunned.

Be sure to catch Hey Rosetta! at Lincoln Hall, September 10^th!

**Then come back to Stic for an exclusive interview with the band!
