About Me

Billy and Timmy Roach have been performing and recording original music for the last 7 years. Demos they recorded in a bucks county studio in 2002 would lead to the formation of Overlook the following year. In a 4 year span, overlook has been featured in local and national compilations, film soundtracks, music conferences, festivals and basements. Their first single, "Don't Follow Me" was featured on 93.3 WMMR's Local Shots Vol I, and most recently they performed live on radio 104.5 fm. Currently, Overlook is in the middle of recording their first full-length album. Their first release in 2 years, "Hello from Nowhere" is being written, recorded and produced independently...to be released in the summer of 2008.
