Rosalita have been together since 2005 and have begun to make their name nationwide, including recognition from music magazines such as NME and airplay on BBC Radio One.

Their latest tour began in March and they are now set to tour Scotland, Liverpool, Wolverhampton and Doncaster until the end of the month.

The tour coincides with the release of their new EP What Would Your Mother Say, through the record label Taste.

Drummer John Randall, 24, from Ipswich, described the tour so far as absolutely amazing and said their best gig so far has been in their home town of Ipswich.

More than 480 people turned out to watch Rosalita, many of whom had supported them since the beginning.

The gig was so good, John said it rivalled playing over two days at V Festival in 2007 after winning the competition The Road To V.

John said: "If I was asked what's the most amazing time I have had in my life, it probably would be at V and feeling like I was a rock star.

"It was the first time I thought 'this is an opportunity and I have reached the point where this can work out'. The whole couple of days were absolutely surreal."

During the festival, the band brushed shoulders with the likes of Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins from the Foo Fighters, Jarvis Cocker, Kelly Jones from The Stereophonics, Bez from Happy Mondays, Juliette Lewis from The Licks and Pete Doherty.

Other members of Rosalita include vocalist Kris Andrew, 23, from Hadleigh, bassist Jay Goodrich, 23, from Ipswich, keyboard player Ben Groom, 25, from Ipswich, and guitarist Richard Tyler, 24, from Colchester.

The band, who describe themselves as indie, electro, post-punk, new wave hope one day to achieve their ultimate goal of making enough money from their talent to no longer have other jobs.

Another high point in their time together includes being picked to record three tracks at Radio One's Maida Vale Studios and having one played by Huw Stevens.
