Rocco DeLuca

Rocco DeLuca and the Burden is a four-piece American alternative rock and roll band from California who formed in late 2005. Having performed with such musicians as Taj Mahal, John Lee Hooker, and Johnny Cash, their sounds find root in such eclectic acts as Pink Floyd and Ravi Shankar. This was the inaugural Los Angeles event for Gen Art's new music series, Sound Circle, a program presenting the hottest emerging music acts in an intimate setting. Besides doing what they love to do - performing their songs live - groups also get to share stories on their songwriting process. So turn up those speakers, lean back and prepare yourselves for some truly inspired sounds.
