RROYCE

In the organizer's words:

In January 2013, the Dortmund trio performed live on stage for the first time - on the occasion of the underground band contest "UNBACO". RROYCE emerged as the winner out of 64 bands.
Various appearances followed in 2013, such as at the Leipzig Wave-Gotik-Treff (WGT), as support for the Crüxshadows on the occasion of their European tour, victory at the "X-mas-Hexentanz" and the nomination for the German Rock & Pop Award 2013 in two categories, where RROYCE was awarded 1st prize as "Best Gothic Wave Band" and 2nd prize as "Best Electropop Band".
In 2014, RROYCE was voted 3rd place by readers at the "Battle of the Bands" of the scene magazine Sonic Seducer, played at the Hexentanz-Open Air, the Blackfield Festival and completed their "Electronic Transformers Tour", where they presented their first longplayer "Dreams & Doubts & Fears".The debut album was initially produced in-house, with the first edition of 300 copies selling out within three months. The new edition was released on the Swiss label THEXOOMO and the album is now available in all record stores through the distribution of Broken Silence.
"Dreams & Doubts & Fears" was voted one of the top 10 personal "Albums of the Year 2014" by several DJs. In addition, RROYCE achieved top ten placements with their album, including in the Poponaut charts (8th place - January 2015) and in the GEWC charts (6th place - February 2015).
In 2015, RROYCE increased their live presence and shared the stage with scene greats such as De/Vision, Solitary Experiments and Tyske Ludder as part of the Electronic Transformers Tour.
The follow-up album "Karoshi" was released in September 2016 and reached number 2 in the GEWC album charts. The two singles "The Principle of Grace" and "Who needs" both reached number 2 in the GEWC singles charts.
Due to these successes, the label INFACTED-RECORDINGS became aware of RROYCE. To seal the collaboration, the Karoshi album was re-released as a "deluxe version" by INFACTED in October 2017. At the turn of the year 2017/2018, RROYCE supported Eisfabrik as a special guest on their club tour and managed to win over a large number of fans during a memorable performance at the Amphi Festival 2018.
In November 2018, RROYCE toured Germany as special guests during an extensive club tour together with Solitary Experiments. At the beginning of 2019, the three Dortmund natives underlined their live ambitions with engagements at two major festivals, namely E-Tropolis and Plague Noire.
September 2019 saw the release of "Patience", their third studio album, and an extensive club tour with WELLE:ERDBALL allowed RROYCE to expand their circle of fame.

The corona period slowed the RROYCE express down from 230 km/h to 0, but even THAT couldn't prevent them from picking up where they left off with big gigs, including at E-Tropolis 2022. AND ONE became aware of RROYCE and so it came about that a joint tour was played in the fall of 2023, with unprecedented audience numbers.
