With influences like James Brown, Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Joe Tex, Al Green and General
Johnson to just name a few, Austin, TX based band, Roxy Roca is a soul powerhouse. This eight member
band hit the ground running when they made their debut at an ACL Festival after-party and the rest
was history. From that night on, Roxy Roca made their mark on the music scene, which landed them
more high-profile shows with B.B. King, Fitz and The Tantrums, Mayer Hawthorne, Orgone, Honey
Island Swamp Band, Brownout, The Monophonics, Maneja Beto, T-Bird and The Breaks, and others.
The band was an official showcasing artist at SXSW 2012 and 2013. Roxy Roca recently released
“Basement Tapes Vol. I,” a limited edition CD, which is a collection of their early recordings and is
available only at
