About me - Power Pop Phenom Roc Zonte releases up-beat anthem Scorching the air with flailing guitar and an attitude to match, ROC is changing the face of girl-power-pop as we know it. Straying a long way from the typical image of what most think a girl should be, ROC alternately thrashes and caresses her infectious tunes, demanding attention from any listener. She’s done it all. Catchy punchy riffs and melodies from heart felt ballads like “After Sunday“, a rock song with a India twist, “Can’t Be Me”, “ eerie guitar harmonics introducing “Sanity”, to grrl power anthems like, well, “Girls Like Us“. Roc is a self taught musician who produced, arranged and played all the instruments on the CD except the drums. “She has a great ear for music” said Dee from Cherokee Studios, who was shocked with ROC’s musical talent as he was mixing the songs. “Especially ‘Sanity’ a tune layered with five harmonic guitars”, he adds. “She is a multi talented performer and will definitely make her mark in the music business.” Her first single ‘Girls Like Us’ definitely sets a mood of power and strength, an anthem for the new generation of women.”
