That note kills me! In a good way of course. This is the first time I've seen this man perform, but I have a lot of respect for his music. I'm glad I discovered him.
I can't believe you would even compare Rocco to Paulo. Rocco's voice mixed with his magical fingers stomp almost anyone. Jimi Hendrix or Jimmy Page are people who would be more appropriate
I saw Rocco in Kansas City about 2 years ago and it remains to this day the best concert I've ever seen... by far. This is the only band I could garauntee driving 6 hours any night of the week to see
Agreed. I saw them six times in 07 and I can't wait for them to hit the road again. The good news? They're actually coming to my city! The even better news? Gas is way cheaper and I'm hitting every show within three hours of me - which should be about five. I can't wait. Did you get their new CD? It kills.
Holy shit Rocco fucking kills it. He just owns. I saw him open for Keane and didn't know shit about him, but believe me, I heard. No recording does his vocals justice, he is so freakin powerful and just awesome. Is there really any vocalist comparable to his style? I don't think so, he blends his influences very well without being a rip off.
Yes! sooo so true and we do have a long way to go before we see people appreciate the depth and fantastic talent of real artists rather than commercialized propaganda that they hear from one of the few funnels they embrace.
:-D funny cause I was just watchin this vid again as you replied hehehehe :) my favorite song from him is I trust you to kill me...or Dope...but this song is growing on me fast...cant wait for his new album to be out!
i love rocco deluca and the burden. this band is amazing. so much talent! his voice is amazing. i cant wait to see them tomorrow at music in the park in san jose!:)
At Starbucks? Get this guy into the same stadiums that no-talent ass clowns like U2 and Maroon 5 get to use. It saddens me that the tone deaf public are told to enjoy simple emo music and effortless rap music. Look how much emotion this artist pours into his work, and then compare it to the pussy voice of Adam Levine or any other worthless pop star. I despise the fact that the media ignores any actual talent and chooses to stereotype certain genres to rake in money. Don't change, Rocco!
pretty depressing that if you say to some dude on the street who's rocco deluca? they would look at you puzzled but if you say whos nickelback there like ahhhh greatest band ever, chads a genuis, yeah? .... sighh
I can not believe I've never heard of this guy until today. This is the 4th song in a row I've listened to and I'm definitely a new-found fan. This guy: exhales talent! has a Great voice! Exhudes soul! Awesome material! and is possibly even painfully pretty ;-) An artist with everything!!! (except mainstream radio play, apparently) We can get him that, too! Come to Miami. I'm waiting!!!!
There's no justice in this world... this guy languishes in relative anonymity with virtually no mainstream radio play, and yet lunkheads like Nickleback and Hinder have the world on a string. Long Live The True Artist!
Do you people fully understand the realm of spactacular this young man has within ! We are listening to what the world has hungered to hear...something that connects us to music's raw depth!We are in the presents of Greatness that deserves far more than to be compared to anything we've ever experienced!Rocco is an old soul of what newly birthed legand personifies.
I fully get it dude, even saw him in concert, can't wait for him to return. I think he and the Burden are so good, I made it a singular purpose to promote him and have successfully turned on near a dozen folks, all of which have bought the album. THis is deeply provocative music-off label, top shelf. Long live RD & the B.
Does anyone know what kind of guitar that is, or what distortion he uses to get the blues sound. I am buying one but I want the right kind. leave me a message please.
It's a Gibson Dobro resonator guitar. i'm not sure exactly what model it is, but i don't think gibson makes that exact one anymore. They make a hound dog model, it's pretty expensive though
His Dobro resonators are custom, but he used to play the original models before Gibson bought the name. My grandpa has a Dobro from LONG ago. amazing guitars
i LOVE this song, i was blown away when i first heard it. rocco is such an amazing songwriter and singer. oh and how can i forget about his guitar skills, he's a rock GOD!
my god the guy just gets better!!!! gotta say??? theres only a handful of artists who have got under my skin with incredible voices/musicianship....prince, billy corgan, ed from live and right up there with them is u rocco!! when we met u in cardiff, wales u and band were lovely and friendly and a pleasure 2 talk 2, u made our night running after us 2 give us a signed drum skin, keep at it dude and rest of band, I can only say awesome!!! and hurry up with 2nd album
I trust you to sing to me and hold me close.....Rocco your musical talent has me swooning.:)

so im like 15 and almost exclusively listen to the delta blues and such
and rocco is one of about 4 other current musicians i respect dearly
i hope his next album is more bluesy than the first one
that would make him like the greatest musician of the 21st century to me

yeah, it's one of the rarest guitars there is; guess you could call it Blues' version of Rocks' Les Paul.
It's also supposed to be very very hard to play. Some of the old school blues guitarists played them, back in the day, but I don't remember who...
