We are Roché (pronounced "row-shay") . . . Contemporary Island Pop!
Roché pays tribute to everyone's favorite contemporary songs, from Beatles to Bruno mars, in Latin and Caribbean Styles!
At the core of Roché is a truly talented duo: singer-songwriter / guitarist Nancy Roché and song-writer/arranger/trombonist / keyboardist, Tom Frazee. This Duo is not your average chirper / strummer "duo-in-the-corner" performance group. Their presence, style, and entertainment value can easily carry what any band can do! They often perform as a duo in smaller venues, but have featured artists as a trio and added band members for larger gigs!
Having moved back to Boston from the Pacific Northwest in 2018, they are a fresh new sound on the New England scene, but not without roots here. Nancy was in the top New England band, “Zonkaraz”, and Tom was a former professor at Berklee College of Music, a Senior Developer of the Songwriting Department & Curriculum, as well as the founder of the Berklee “Tower of Power” ensemble.
Their list of varied achievements is long, with highlights that include the accolades of “Top Performer, Northwest” - Scene magazine, “Best City Celebration West of the Rockies”- SkyNews (80,000 attendees), "Best Club / Dance Band" - Boise Weekly, "Best Nightclub (Blue Lagoon / Roché)" - Idaho Statesman, "Best Female Vocalist"- Boise Weekly, and numerous jingle-writing and BMI songwriting awards.
Think of Roché as your “Cabana Band”; serving you the best of Caribbean/Latin/Pop in a funky, fun-filled frozen Piña Colada umbrella drink! Roche' brings you a rhythmic, soulful, horn-laced mix of music, with a range of talent as deep as the ocean, combined with the warmth and intimacy of sitting around a beach campfire, as well as the punchy horns of spicy Cuban salsa. Roché breathes new life into the songs you love and know so well.
Roché, in whatever embodiment, is right at home in any location - be it clubs and dance venues or country clubs and private parties.
Roché = "GREAT SONGS, HAPPY BEATS!"

"We get bands here all the time, and even if they are talented and may play some songs I like, the thing that they are always lacking is the humble connection with the audience. Roché brings that gift to the table.
Refreshing to see!" . . .

"You guys are so funny! I came here in such a down space and Your music and humor just dragged me into probably one of the most fun evenings I have had in years!"
. . . Chandra S.
"I wish that more club owners realized that people like me want diversity when I go out to see a band. I hear the same durgy kind of music everywhere I go. More Roché please!"

"That started out as a tough crowd. You guys pulled them up by their boot straps and really turned the room around.
Great job!" . . . Gene D.
"We are going to be back to this place every time you are booked here!"
. . . Casey L.
"I have not seen such talent and energy come through here in a long time. You can consider me a member of your fan club.
Love the band!" . . . John D.
