Rosegarden Funeral Party

Rosegarden Funeral Party is an alternative band from Dallas, Tx fronted by Austin Camp and Leah Lane. Inspired by everything from 60's psychedelia, to 80's gothic/new wave music, to 90's shoegaze, to modern alternative bands of the psych scene, Rosegarden Funeral Party brings forth innovation and individualism to the stage. Austin Camp is a long-time guitarist and composer. With the extensive knowledge of pedals and an incredible ear, he creates music that expands beyond traditional boundaries. He started his musical career in Dallas band Art for Motels and went on to join another Dallas act, the Orange. In both groups, Camp added unique textures and ingenious parts that gave each band a unique and interesting sound. Leah Lane, a well seasoned musician, has been actively gigging in the Deep Ellum area and nationally for three years with her previous band Moon Waves. A vocalist first, Lane expands to keyboards and guitar playing. Writing for Moon Waves and her solo project as well as for Rosegarden Funeral Party, Lane is a versatile writer inspired by all types of music. They are joined by Wil Farrier on bass who previously fronted his own band, Black Vega. In Black Vega, Will posed as the main song-writer, vocalist, and guitarist and brings a higher level of musical know-how to the group due to his degree in guitar studies from Booker T Washington HSPVA. Nate Litz, the drummer for Dallas indie band Field Guide, plays synth in Rosegarden Funeral Party and brings depth and dynamics to the music with leading lines that add to the group's wall of sound. Nate has played with guitarist, Austin Camp, for many years and was the synth player in Camp's previous band, Art For Motels. Tate Christopher from Vegan Shark drums for the band. He is extremely well-versed in recording and all different styles of drumming. These five musical individuals have come together to create Rosegarden Funeral Party.
