About Roguespeare
Roguespeare’s principal composer and performer is Kealey Castle, who records from her home deep in the Sussex Weald. She is joined by a wide range of musicians, both family and friends, from across southern England and Wales.
The music is an eclectic and dynamic mix of acoustic and electronic elements, experimental pop, art pop and more tribal, traditional folk with a touch of the avant garde. Our music also has strong overtones of classical music styles, particularly from Italian baroque composers.
