History

The New Roses were founded in 2007 by singer Timmy Rough and drummer Urban Berz and officially took on the name "The New Roses" in 2012.

The second album Dead Man's Voice including the radio single "Thirsty"[6] was released on 26 February 2016 and reached number 36 in the German album charts.[7] On the same day, the "Dead Man's Voice" Tour started with a sold-out show at the Schlachthof in Wiesbaden, Germany. In Summer 2016, shows on European festivals followed, The New Roses performed at the Summer Breeze Festival and Rock Harz Open Air[8] in Germany, Love Ride Festival in Switzerland, and on Show Bike Aquitaine, Raismes Fest, and Plougarock Festival in France.
