Maria Rose & The Swiss Kicks is an alternative pop/soul/rock trio from Flint, Michigan. Bold and vivacious.. Anxious and gritty.. Their sound compares to that of Florence and The Machine, Tori Amos, and Adele. Their music tells the bittersweet story of the trials and tribulations of the human spirit. Armed with powerful vocals, pulsating percussion, and driving synths their passionate live performances have been winning over fans and generating buzz for the release of their self-produced debut album, “New Direction”, this Fall/Winter.
This is Maria Rose & The Swiss Kicks’ 1st appearance at Midwest Fest.
