Interview with Taye Cannon in Weld for Birmingham

There’s a great feature on ROXY ROCA in yesterday’s Weld for Birmingham, including an interview with singer Taye Cannon where he talks about his Alabama roots, SXSW, and running into Texas music royalty at a coffee shop. Here’s a little taste:

You don’t have to know any Roxy Roca songs to enjoy a night of the band’s music. With its self-described “dynamite Texas soul” musical style, the seven-piece band from Austin, Tex. offers a sound familiar and fresh at the same time.

On Friday, June 12, Roxy Roca returns to Birmingham for a 10 p.m. performance at Innisfree Irish Pub. Recently, we caught up with lead vocalist Taye Cannon by phone as the band was en route to Lafayette, La.
