Roxanne Tataei’s musical journey began in church, encouraged by the choirmaster (“He’d make me go at the forefront [to sing] every week and I’d be shaking… It was the best thing that he could have done”).  Primary school performances soon led to tours around England with the National Youth Music Theatre, which she describes as a “grounding” experience, before putting it all to the side in favour of writing her own music and experimenting with sounds. Following an extended trip to Mexico she formed an acoustic jazz trio and gigged around London, which brought the A&Rs her way.  Then last year, in stepped Rough Trade records and ROX's solo quest began.
