Meet Seth Roach
Seth Roach is from the swamp lands of southern Louisiana, where the culture is rich in flavors and iconic blues tunes. He discovered his passion for music at the young age of 12 and has gone on to learn and perform on multiple instruments such as guitar, piano, and flute. At 19 he started his international travels moving to South East Asia and immersed himself in a variety of unique cultures which play a role in the sound he has developed over the 12 years of being on the road. He also spent over 5 years in Rio de Janeiro, where Samba and Bossa Nova are inescapable.
He lives as an artist, and his deep love for people create a connection with the audience that is easy to feel and see. His shows are mostly improvised live looping and are highly influenced by the very people he plays for, even incorporating them in the show at times. Elements of electronic, folk and rock are present in his unique sounds. He has performed in over 13 countries, providing special moments and instigating dance wherever he goes.
