About the Band
History
Walkin’ Rosie has quickly risen to become a sought out, crowd favorite in the greater Pittsburgh area music scene. The band was founded by four of the Yezovich brothers (Mike, Mark, Joe & John), their sister (Maria), and a friend (Todd Baldwin) back in 2016. At the end of 2021, Mike, Joe and Todd made the difficult decision to leave the group due to ever growing professional and personal responsibilities. John exited for similar reasons at the end of 2025. Talented and experienced local musicians - Eric Biel (lead guitar & vocals), Tony DeLuca (bass guitar & vocals) and John Macho (drums) joined the group in 2022 and have carried on the name and spirit of Walkin' Rosie since.
This versatile and fun group knows how to deliver hit covers spanning countless music genres and eras with an infectious energy and amazing sound that leaves audiences wondering what the set list will bring next and wanting more. Performing a little something for everyone in a style all their own, Walkin’ Rosie is THE premier cover band that you do not want to miss!
