Heralded as a \u201cgolden-voiced troubadour\u201d and one of the \u201c32 N.J. bands and artists you need to hear in 2022\u201d by NJ.com, Rory D\u2019Lasnow picked up his late father\u2019s guitar upside-down and backward at the age of six. Despite never turning his guitar right-side-up, Rory\u2019s unique contemplative sound has propelled him on to perform at some of the East Coast's most distinguished venues and festivals such as Mercury Lounge, House of Independents, and the Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival.

His penchant for evocative and vulnerable storytelling has earned him international radio airplay, opening slots for The Early November, Knuckle Puck, American Idol Winner Lee DeWyze, Actor/Musician Drake Bell, and John Corabi of M\xf6tley Cr\xfce/The Dead Daisies, and has garnered praise from the likes of American Songwriter and Atwood Magazine.

This year, Rory is touring nationally in support of his new EP, entitled \u201cSongs From An Empty Room\u201d which was produced by Hidden In Plain View guitarist/producer Rob Freeman (Gym Class Heroes, Armor For Sleep, Cobra Starship, Hit The Lights), mastered by Grammy-nominated mastering engineer Mike Kalajian (All Time Low, Circa Survive, Saosin, Straylight Run), and is available on all streaming platforms now.
