Lud Roes, formerly known as Avery and Ella, emerges with a resounding presence through their electrifying live performances and the release of their latest album, *Dear IV*. However, their transformation doesn’t stop there; this spring, they unveil a captivating music video for their single “Waiting for B,” directed by the talented Mitchel Worley. Capturing the essence of the song’s haunting melodies, the video unfolds against the backdrop of one of winter’s coldest nights, amplified by the ambiance of an actual séance. Mitchel Worley, a renowned creative from the DC region, infuses the visuals with a mesmerizing depth, perfectly complementing the introspective nature of the track.
Ella, one of the band’s members, shares, “We’d been contemplating a name change for some time. This felt like the perfect way to introduce Lud Roes to the world.” Avery adds, “We aim to embrace change and growth while celebrating the spirit of collaboration within the music industry’s underground realm.” Robzie, the band’s drummer, emphasizes the importance of community in their journey. The narrative of Lud Roes mirrors the collaborative ethos of DC’s underground DIY music scene. It began with Ella G and Avery Petrucci, two fearless women who dared to pursue their musical aspirations. After a year of searching for a drummer, they connected with Robzie Trulove, a professional drummer and passionate advocate for marginalized musicians through her involvement with the nonprofit This Could Go Boom.
With Robzie’s expertise and support, Lud Roes flourished, securing studio sessions, live shows, and ultimately recording their debut album. Their appreciation for the DC music community shines through their social media, where they express gratitude for the unwavering support of fellow artists and industry professionals. “Waiting for B” encapsulates Lud Roes’ journey—a testament to resilience, authenticity, and the transformative power of music. As they continue to evolve, Lud Roes stands as a beacon of inspiration, showcasing the remarkable achievements born from passion, collaboration, and unwavering determination.
