Taylor Locke & The Roughs is a 4 piece rock band based out of Los Angeles, CA. It consists of guitarist Taylor Locke from the band Rooney, guitarist/keyboardist Chris Price from the band Price, bassist Charlotte Froom formerly of the band The Like, and drummer Mikey McCormack of the band Everybody Else. Their debut album Grain & Grape is set to be released in mid-March 2010.

Bio
The band was started in 2009 as a result of Taylor Locke and Chris Price collaborating on a number of songs over the course of 2 years. They both shared an affinity for the rock bands of the 1960s and 70s such as The Beatles and Badfinger. Their intention was to write eclectic songs that would marry the various influences they shared. Taylor felt that the material told a personal story about the things he was going through in his life. They brought on drummer Mikey McCormack to record 10 songs in November 2009 and later asked bassist Charlotte Froom to join the band and complete the lineup. The band has played a few shows in California opening for the band Sloan and plan on touring to support the album sometime in 2010. They have also stated that if the public reacts favorably to their first album they plan on releasing a second album by the end of 2010.
