Lead single “Christa” features twangy guitars, chugging rhythms, and playful, luminous vocal harmonies, and its accompanying video has mystical, otherworldly vibe that perfectly captures the band’s aesthetic.
Christa is the brand new single from Brooklyn’s Las Rosas and the first off their upcoming sophomore LP “Shadow By Your Side”, out May 11th via NYC’s Greenway Records. “Christa” is out now on a limited edition pink vinyl 7″ with non album b-side “Lost Cat” Las Rosas create lean, psychedelic rock songs, piled with dance floor harmonies. The trio conjure luminous, moon-eyed pop vibes delivered with authority and muscle.
The words “Brooklyn” and “Garage” might as well be peanut butter and jelly in Austin; we can’t tell you how many groups of long haired kids with trust funds stop wearing deodorant and buy tight jeans as a “fuck you, dad!” statement of internalized otherness. But Brooklyn’sLas Rosas succumb to none of that shit. The autumns of teenage years often pass unhurried, like a languid river, unaware of its eventual violent end down a crushing waterfall. In this metaphor, Las Rosas are three shed leaves, floating and bobbing on the water’s surface, edging closer to the muddy banks, then climbing out of the water, walking along the road on their little brown stems, piling into their sea-foam-green van, driving away, and releasing “Flower in the Sun” and “Ms. America” (Dizzybird Records 2015). They’re the little leafs you see driving around the USA, playing rock shows far and wide, with their little guitars and drums. No autumn leaf, if you bothered to check, ever stops moving.
Catching them opening for King Khan was one of that week’s greatest surprises, and the band performed their paisley, catchy numbers with all psychedelic cohesion of a multi-sensory acid test cavalcade. LasRosas also channel the swinger-iffic swagger of Khan, serving up soulful pop tunes fit to soundtrack a night of boogie.
