Rosewood Thieves play Wednesday, March 11 at the Bug Jar.
If Mark Bolin had recorded "Double Fantasy" it might've come out sounding like the Rosewood Thieves. You can thank the Brooklyn-based quartet's self-production to a certain degree, but it really comes down to singer Erick Jordan's casual raggedness. He comes on powerful and cool, and sings mellow within the band's perfectly balanced strata. The Thieves' "Rise And Shine" is retro pop at its best, relying on vocal harmonies on melodies that snag. Bands with a similar view - Gigolo Ants, Jet - celebrate this brand of timeless melodic pop rock, and frankly I'd like to see more. The Rosewood Thieves' music embraces many moods as the band evolves and morphs throughout the day. It certainly brightened mine.
