Keegan’s Ales , 20 St James St, Kingston Listen to the Roosters
while reading ⬇︎ We are the Roadhouse Roosters and hail from the
northern suburbs of the “Big Apple”, aka New York City. As a trio,
we play an up tempo, boogie and blues repertoire that’s heavy on
slide guitar, electric and acoustic, and designed to keep ourselves
and the audience from ever getting bored. We specialize in doing our
own arrangements of interesting cover tunes as well as our own
originals. It all started in 2011 when Joel Smith [vocals, lead and
slide guitars] approached Rick Greenop [vocals, bass guitar] with the
idea of making the occasional Saturday night a bit more interesting.
Now with Chris Rottkamp performing percussion duties, we are now
rocking it for all it’s worth. We continue to record our original
tunes at Ken Eichler’s Sliding Door studio in New Rochelle N.Y., a
state of the art facility, that have aired on DJ Wendee’s blues
show, and later on dj Christine Vitale’s show, both on Fairleigh
Dickinson’s WFDU 89.1 fm radio station out of Jersey city. Heavily
influenced by Johnnie Winter and other great blues men of the past, we
try to give the listeners a rocking good time when they come out to a
live show.
