Bio
Rogue Agents are a psychedelic rock band formed in Brooklyn, NY in 2002. The group was formed by lead singer Amethyst Rose and guitarist Azara Brown. Brown and Azara were high school friends who both had a passion for music and who've played together in many talent shows. As they graduated high school, instead of attending college, they jumped straight into making music and their first recorded unreleased single was said to be named "Genesis" which is a 3 minute track depicting their struggles in the burrow of Brooklyn. After receiving feedback from a few friends, Rose and Brown were determined to start releasing music so they put out their first official single "Outcast" in 2006. Members Camryn Rhodes and Aja Hunt joined mid 2007.
As stated earlier, Rogue Agents are a psychedelic rock band lead by vocalist and keyboard player Amethyst Rose, lead guitarist Azara Brown, drummer Camryn Rhodes, and bassist Aja Hunt. Their first official single as a 4-person band is titled "Objection", released in 2008. Lead singer Amethyst Rose uses soft vocals as well as a synthesizer effect on her keyboard to create the psychedelic sound you hear in their music. Guitarist Azara Brown uses a talkbox to add distortion to their sound, thus adding to their traditional style of music. Bassist Aja Hunt and drummer Camryn Rhodes both provide the perfect amount of groove to their music that makes listeners feel like they're floating.
Rogue Agents have played at Warped Tour 2010 at the Cricket Wireless amphitheater in San Diego. They played along with Bring Me The Horizon, New Years Day, The Pretty Reckless and various other bands. Rogue Agents have also played The Meadows Music & Arts Festival in 2016 at CitiField in Queens, NY along with Gorillaz, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jay Z and many others.
As for future plans, Rogue Agents plan on releasing their 4th studio album titled "Dear Diary". They've been working on it for over three years in order to "perfectly craft each song", lead singer Amethyst Rose says. They also plan on playing at SummerStage, New York's largest performing arts festival and hopes to gain more support by doing so.
