Ezza Rose is an American singer-songwriter based in Portland, OR. She also records as Ezza Rose Band. Her debut album, “Through The Music Box,” came out self-released in July 2009. Engineered and mixed by Lance Andrew Leonnig. Her second album, Jacob, was released in 2011.

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. Rose 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 Band found a niche in the rising indie-pop scene. The group plays in venues ranging from hole-in-the-wall bars to some of Portland’s most coveted stages. Read more on Last.fm.
