Rosetta West – “Night’s Cross”

As a new fan of Rosetta West, I was excited to dive into their latest album, “Night’s Cross”. The Illinois-based blues rock trio Rosetta West presents a second album that combines familiar elements with fresh musical influences between psychedelia and world folk genres. The band recorded their album in a small home studio located in rural Illinois where they combined their signature sound with introspective musical themes.

Joseph Demagore’s passionate vocals and his ability to play guitar and keyboard create the foundation for the album’s deep musical landscapes. As co-producer and bassist Jason X provides groovy basslines and keyboard depth to the music while maintaining exceptional production standards. Drummer Nathan Q. Scratch uses his dynamic percussion to push the rhythm forward and create additional intensity in the tracks.

The album “Night’s Cross” presents a darker musical experience than “Labyrinth“, delving into contemplations of mortality without succumbing to gloom. The album maintains an engaging balance, offering listeners a profound experience that’s both thought-provoking and sonically satisfying.

I strongly recommend “Night’s Cross” to music enthusiasts who want to experience deep soulful music that combines blues rock with mystical and spiritual elements, and show some love to Rosetta West on their social media to stay updated about their upcoming releases and tours.
