The name Roses in Rome was the result of a fictional band that a friend of the guys had dreamed about. "Everyone at TNA IMPACT WRESTLING fell in love with the song as soon as we heard it. We know our fans are going to love it too and look forward to welcoming Roses in Rome as our very special guests during the UK Tour." - TNA spokesperson ''When I discovered Roses in Rome, the first thing that came to mind was EPIC. Their songs begin subtle and atmospheric. 8 bars latter they throw a screamer at you with intense guitars and drum fills. Then seamlessly and effortlessly they are back to the atmospheric, melodic tones. This band will surely take you on this epic adventure with them, demanding that you feel the emotion from their precise musicianship and bold lyrics they have created. In an industry that has become so diluted, RIR has carved themselves a niche that separates themselves from the pack. This band has something to say...and I suggest you listen!'' - Ryan Benes - Producer for CBS Radio - Cleveland, Ohio "I checked out Roses in Rome. I think you've got a diverse sound, a bit like Used & Thrice" - Felony Records "I'm very excited about this band" - Kerry Devine/BBC Radio www.youtube.com/RIROfficial www.twitter.com/RIROfficial http://listn.to/RosesInRome
