Des Rocs
27th September 2024

Des Rocs is a fearsome force of nature, a self-invented rock ‘n’ roll star for a new age and a generation seeking direction, a streetwalking cheetah with a heart full of napalm on a mission to search and destroy our social media-addled brains. The artist otherwise known as Danny Rocco is an original… sui generis, taking elements of the past and forging a fresh destiny for high-energy guitar, bass and drums electric music.

Dream Machine, his new album, and first for legendary rock indie Sumerian Records, is Des Rocs’ vehicle to take us along to that place… where life is heightened, and rock ‘n’ roll once more rules the zeitgeist. He’s not going to be a best-kept secret for
long. His brand of self-titled “bedroom arena-rock” – which captures a blend of DIY intimacy and large-scale vision – is ready to infect the masses, to find the artistic tightrope within that populist thrust. Every performance is “on the edge of life and death” for Des Rocs, who works without a safety net in a “Never Ending Moment.” He was born to do this.
