Retsecrow(s) – pronounced ret-see-crows.
It’s Worcester spelt backwards and because there are four of them, it had to be plural. The name isn’t the only distinctive thing about these kids from the Midlands. With a mix of dirty metal and guitar-driven rock covers these kids are happiest playing in front of a live audience; there’s a good chance they’ll drop some originals into their set too.
The band features the remarkable talents of Luca on vocals and guitar, defying his age at just 13 years old. Joining him are Lily, a bass prodigy at 16; Ollie, 16, wields the lead guitar, while George, 15, keeps the thunderous rhythm alive.
They formed in July 2022 and played their first gig at a festival in Bewdley, Worcestershire in September 2022. More gigs and a radio appearance followed through 2023 and they continued to write original songs together and develop their sound.
We are Retsecrow(s)
Retsecrows entered 2024 in the studio, releasing their debut single Grief Of Me in March to strong streaming numbers—now topping 8,000 plays on Spotify. Their follow-up, Blood Sea, quickly passed 5,000 streams and earned repeated airplay on rock and metal radio shows across the UK.
On stage, the band have built a reputation for high-energy, crowd-grabbing performances, from packed venues in the West Midlands and Worcestershire to major festival stages. 2025 sees them stepping up to the Trailblazer Stage at Call Of The Wild Festival and sharing the bill with established acts in support slots for bands including Kim Jennett Faux Fighters and Not Now Norman.
Rooted in the birthplace of heavy metal, Retsecrows channel the region’s legacy into a modern, hard-hitting sound—equal parts raw power, precision, and passion.
