Rocco DeLuca (born December 27, 1975) is a California-based indie rock musician who came to prominence as the lead singer of the four-piece band Rocco DeLuca and the Burden. Since 2009, DeLuca has toured and recorded as a solo artist.
DeLuca, half Italian and half German, was born in Torrance, California and grew up in Lake Elsinore and Long Beach. Like other Angelenos, he was surrounded by local literature, Latino art, motorcycles, film, and music. His early years were spent studying the likes of Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, and the darker and raw Delta Blues heroes of the 1920s. By the age of seven, DeLuca had taught himself to play listening to these records and, by the time he was a teenager, he had developed his skills and confidence to perform for others. Initially only playing instrumentally, he later began singing as well. Since, he has performed around the world as his authentic and unusual lyric and voice have garnered him international attention and acclaim.
Honey, it's all around you
The things that you're drawn to
Is what you've become
Money, is that what you wanted
Your paper is haunted
Inside your hands
Red lights
Now that they found you
Now they surround you
You're losing control [x2]
Losing control [x3]
Honey, the hero is scheming
Tell us you're dreaming
Well, everything's fine (everything's fine)
Red lights
Now that they found you
Always surround you
You're losing control [x2]
Losing control [x3]
Now that they found you
Now you've been found
Yea, you're losing control
Losing control
... losing control
You're losing control
Honey, you know I love you
There's no one above you
