The Rooks
The Rooks formed in fall of 2009 when lead singer Zach Ryan relocated to Las Vegas after a short stint back in his home state of Oregon. Formerly performing locally as a solo act, Ryan decided to form a band this time around after getting together with guitarist Angel Ramirez-Ornelas. The band strives for more of a classic blues sound than the popular indie rock of today.
