Biography:

Ezza Rose was born and raised in Julian, California, a small gold rush town on the border of the Anza Borrego desert and San Diego county line. She moved to Portland, OR in 2007 where her music started to blossom. Coming from a town with a heavy folk and bluegrass scene, she found herself writing primarily in these veins. Ezza played solo for a little over a year when she stumbled across Aubrey Webber (cello, and back up vox), John Vecchiarelli (drums) and William Joersz (upright bass). The four started playing shows, and in doing so, found Ashley King (violin, back up vox) and Kyle Butz (banjo, ukulele, accordion). With lilting three part harmonies, some blues, bluegrass, and folk influences, Ezza Rose has found a niche in the rising indie-pop scene. The group now plays in venues ranging from hole-in-the-wall bars to some of Portland’s most coveted stages.

Ezza’s debut album, “Through The Music Box,” came out self-released in July of 2009. Engineered and mixed by Lance Andrew Leonnig.

Her upcoming second album will be released spring of 2011. Recorded at Type Foundry in Portland, OR with Adam Selzer

"Ezza Rose is a young, rising star in the local folk arena. Her beautiful voice and stunning sense of melody and harmony has quickly gained her a loyal following.." - The Woods
