Despite The Weather Network threatening thunder showers all weekend, it was a beautiful day for Saturday's love fest on Olympic Island. I arrived on the island about midway through Rogue Wave's set. As I approached the concert area, "Publish My Love" was bleeding out of the speakers to a relaxed and happy crowd. It was still pretty hot...

Rogue Wave — Descended Like Vultures

in
By Bryan Borzykowski (CHARTattack) October 25, 2005 11:27 am
Last year, Rogue Wave came out of nowhere and won over indie pop lovers across the continent.

Rogue Wave haven't had it easy as a band, and I'm not talking musically. From the death of their former bassist, to the near-death by kidney failure of their drummer, Rogue Wave are a band who define tragedy. You've heard Rogue Wave a million times. Their music has been place everywhere from zombie video games and to The O.C. Considering...

Zach Rogue's rise to indie pop fame has been nothing short of magical. Sure, it takes some talent to get signed to Sub Pop. But, if you believe the Rogue Wave frontman, he owes his success to sorcery. "I was delivered by a stork to my parents and they sent me to a wizard school for seven years," Rogue says. "Through that nerdy...

Rogue Wave — Out Of Your Shadow

in
By Bryan Borzykowski (CHARTattack) July 13, 2004 4:14 pm
It took only a year for Rogue Wave to move from struggling indie artists to Sub Pop newcomers. After listening to Out Of Your Shadow, it’s obvious why they’ve climbed the indie rock ladder as fast as they have. The album is filled with soft acoustic guitar, catchy pop melodies and soothing harmonies. The best part about Rogue Wave, however, are...
