la roche
My music is sponsored by queer people
With a finger in every pie, la Roche is the project of Rochelle Sacks, a non- binary, Mexican- Jewish American at the helm of the vocally flirty electronic music they produce, informed by the cultural fusion of their upbringing as they lived in Vietnam, Korea, and Panama before returning to the U.S at the age of 12.
The genre-fluid Drag DJ has honed a musical identity since childhood and is interested in retelling music through the lens of sound, and sound through the lens of the world around you.
La Roche has also performed alongside up-and-coming artists they admire such as Balún, Brothertiger, Summerheart and Pitchfork acclaimed artist, Hana Vu.

MUSIC: MADE FOR THE PEOPLE
With all the soul they could muster & a lil’ boogie in their beat, DC natives la Roche humbly presented their debut EP May 2018, encouraging their listeners to harness the sound of their individual spirit.
THAUM celebrates the undeniable magic of our physical worlds, casting light on the inner symphonies of our shadows.
