Hailing from the outskirts of Philadelphia, Officer Roseland has been protecting and serving rock music since 2000. Comprised of Dan Daidone (bass/vocals), Brian Jones (keyboards/guitar), Rob DiJoseph (bass/guitar) and John Ilisco Jr (drums/percussion), this fearlessly experimental band is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of rock into bold new directions, drawing their influence from such eclectic sources of inspiration as Mr. Bungle, Talking Heads, Rush, Frank Zappa, Ween, NoMeansNo, and the Beatles. Fusing everything from funk, punk, new-wave, hardcore, jazz, soul and country with their own uniquely twisted sense of humor, OR has developed an aggressive and original sound desperately needed in an increasingly generic musical landscape.
Philadelphias top rock station, 94.1 WYSP, named Officer Roseland the "Local Rockstars of the Month" for April 2003, and the band was invited into the studio to perform live on Tommy Conwells acclaimed "Loud & Local" program. A pair of songs from ORs self-titled debut, "Fiero" and "Apple Zip Zaps", were featured prominently in award-winning animator Billy Blobs short film Bumble Being at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival. This film was showcased on the debut episode of Comedy Centrals new series Jump Cuts in November 2004. Currently OR can be heard in frequent rotation on the UK's Pulse Unsigned satellite and internet radio station, and on XM satellite radios Unsigned Bands station. O.R. recently completed their first UK tour, including an in-studio live recording/interview with Pulse Unsigned. Their 3rd record, titled "Blast-Off for Kicksville", released in January 2007, captures the demented playfulness that has become their signature.
Rock and roll is in a state of emergency. In order to survive it must evolve. Officer Roseland is a band on a mission to rescue rock from the evil clutches of corporate hijackers and the assembly line of soulless mass production. The airwaves have the right to remain silent no longer. Help is on the way.
Something inspirational, offensive, saucy, and sexy......

Me, Don, and Coleen were huddled around the computer while the party was going on, chugging lager, and taking bets on which song was going to be played next in Puerto Rico. I was 2/3!!!!
