Now, take 2 gallons of Wanda Jackson, 2 gallons of Etta James, a spoonful Howlin’ Wolf, a shot of Dick Dale, add some Cramps and a pint of Nick Curran, mix that all up, shake it, stir it, and light it on fire. The result you get : The Ragged Roses !!!
The Ragged Roses combine the rock & roll spirit of the 1950’s with the attitude of modern roots gunslingers.
It’s a new band, female fronted by Katrien, the embodiment of wild performing art, combining stunning vocals with stunning looks, being backboned by – you can call them although their relative young age and wild raging hearts - veterans of the Belgian roots scene. Watch out for that slapping, walking, gypsy swinging upright bass and lightning bolt guitars, surfing on a wave of groovy drums !
The Ragged Roses are now releasing their debut album “Do Me Right”, containing all self-written original songs and one cover of the great Del Shannon.
So don’t hesitate to check out their album and please visit one of their staggering live shows … ‘cause one thing’s for sure … The Ragged Roses still have some unfinished business to take care of !!!
