[edit] History

Rose Hill Drive was formed in 2003 in Boulder, CO by brothers Jacob Sproul (bass guitar and vocals) and Daniel Sproul (guitar, backup vocals), and high school friend Nathan Barnes (drums).

Rose Hill Drive has done dates with The Black Crowes, The Who, Robert Randolph, Wilco, Queens of the Stone Age, and also performed at Bonnaroo, Wakarusa, Red Rocks, Austin City Limits, and the Warped Tour. Even Van Halen requested Rose Hill Drive to open for them. In the summer of 2006, the band had the honor of playing the same stage as The Who at the Wireless Festival in Leeds and the Hyde Park Calling Festival in London. In the fall of 2006 and spring of 2007, Rose Hill Drive has been asked to support The Who on select US dates, and frontman Pete Townshend has spoken of how much he loves the trio's sound. In the April 2007 issue of Rolling Stone Magazine, Rose Hill Drive was named one of the "10 New Artists to Watch" in 2007.
