Profile:

Standing for ‘Running Out Of Time’, R.O.O.T is a Hong Kong supergroup comprised of Chochukmo vocalist Jan Curious, jazz guitarist Teriver Cheung, Cantopop producer, composer, and keyboardist Sotoc, and drummer Fish Huang, formerly of Taiwanese rock band 831. Drawing on the diverse musical backgrounds of the four members, R.O.O.T’s genre-blending music melds jazz with rock and pop to create something totally unique. Writing mostly in Cantonese, their songs have been lauded by critics and audiences alike, none more so than ‘Wanna Be Like You’, their 2022 collaboration with Taiwanese songstress 9m88.

/作曲家/鍵琴手多重身份樣樣精嘅 Sotoc(蘇道哲)及台灣樂隊八三夭前成員 Fish(黃子瑜)出任鼓手, R.O.O.T 抱承 “Running Out Of Time” 嘅宗旨,快快手出產多首遊走爵士、搖滾兼實驗不同曲風配搭,又能流行悅耳嘅出色單曲。由2020年開門作〈人間有愛〉即攀上「叱咤903專業推介」冠軍至同年勇奪「叱咤樂壇生力軍銀獎」,到與台灣鬼馬女伶 9m88 合作嘅〈Wanna Be Like You〉,再到去年發表嘅〈針對人類〉,R.O.O.T 嘅現場演出相比錄音版本更多變更具爆發力,記得要留意佢哋喺 Clockenflap 2024 嘅演出啊!
