Roseburg is back with their indie, alt-rock infused musical project, 2 in a Million gaining traction and attention from fans and industry professionals alike. Hailing from Utah, the quartet formed in the small town of Roseburg, Oregon, and now reside in the popular state.
The band’s latest EP, 2 in a Million, is a highly anticipated release, marking their return to the music scene after a two and a half year hiatus. This EP is a testament to the band’s resilience and perseverance, as well as their unique storytelling ability through their music.
The EP kicks off with the track “Sun Sick,” a relatable and raw song that speaks about the struggles and frustrations of writer’s block and the challenges of making it in the music industry. The band’s vulnerability is on full display as they share their personal experiences and emotions, creating a connection with listeners.
As the EP progresses, the band delves into themes of relationships, both with each other and with themselves. The track “See You Never” is a powerful and emotional song that touches on the band’s fallout during the pandemic and their eventual reconciliation. Similarly, “Flowers” is a heartfelt ballad about the importance of forgiveness and mending relationships.
One of the standout tracks on the EP is “Good Morning,” which serves as a response to the final track on their previous album, “Goodnight Punk.” This upbeat and catchy song is a celebration of waking up in a peaceful place and being surrounded by the people they love.
With 2 in a Million, Roseburg has created a more intimate and personal record compared to their previous album. They have taken a step back from the grand themes and universal ideas and focused on their own story as a band and their community. This EP showcases the band’s growth and maturity as musicians, as well as their ability to adapt and evolve their sound.
The EP is a perfect blend of chilled-out soft rock with a touch of early 2000s pop-punk nostalgia. Roseburg’s sound remains modern and polished, while also maintaining a human touch that makes their music timeless. It’s no surprise that the band has received support from popular music publications such as Alternative Press, Earmilk, and Atwood Magazine.
Roseburg’s 2 in a Million is a testament to the power of second chances and the importance of perseverance and standing by the people you love. With their unique blend of alt-rock and pop-punk, the band has created an EP that is relatable, honest, and catchy. As they continue to make their mark in the music industry, we can’t wait to see where Roseburg goes next.
