Blue Rose is an Americana inspired group based out of Chicago. Their original music is described as 'relatable emotive story-telling with an edge.' They write what they feel and feel what they write, hoping to inspire listeners to connect and come along for the ride.

​

Members include: songwriting duo, Jori Rose Griffith (lead vocals/guitar) and Marcus Gebauer (lead guitar), Nicholas Kapche (bass guitar), Eric Matteson (drums), and Marty Smith (guitar/vocals).  In a serendipitous turn of events, they met by chance at a local bar, connected over their mutual love of music, became great friends and musical collaborators, and formed a group that feels like it only comes around once in a Blue Moon.

​

In a short period of time, Blue Rose has taken Chicago by storm, playing regional shows and festivals as well as writing and recording their first album 'Blue Moon,' to be released in early 2025. Stay tuned, ya'll!
