Joe Rocca
After taking the time he needed to reinvent his music, Joe Rocca is back with a concept that is both accomplished and introspective, as we see him begin a new phase as an artist.
Accompanied by Félix Petit on production (Les Louanges, Hubert Lenoir), and collaborating with Jean-Michel Frédéric (Dominique Fils-Aimé, Loud, KNLO) and Worry (Greg Beaudin, Yuki Dreams Again), the co-founder of Dead Obies is preparing to unveil his newest incarnation, a unique and original bridge between pop, rap, funk, soul and R&B.
With his first solo album, French Kiss (2017), and many hours spent in the studio and on stage with Dead Obies, this young man who just turned 30 demonstrates a musical maturity that is rare for his age. This wisdom shines through in the humility and authenticity of lyrics that deal with love, relationships, and a realism that emphasizes introspection over exuberance.
