About Me

Me, Myself, and I: Pop artists usually fall into two categories. There are those artists that consistently write and record great pop songs that are gobbled up by the teeming masses and who are often rewarded with money, fame, and the adoration of millions. Then there are those artists that just don’t have “it.” No matter how hard they try, they are usually forgotten before their fifteen minutes begin.

However, Texas pop sophisticates The Alice Rose don’t fall into either of these categories---and probably never will. Like a handful of artists before them, they inhabit the area just outside mainstream pop, applying their eclectic reverence for music of the past to the classic pop formula and kicking out the kind of complex, yet catchy pop on which Squeeze, Crowded House, and Elvis Costello made their names.

The band's sophomore album, All Haunt's Sound, is due in the fall of 2008. You can buy their previous album, Phonographic Memory, at CDBaby.com, iTunes, or Amazon.com.
