Indie-rock sensation Rosali ignited KEXP’s studio with a powerful live rendition of her track “Hills On Fire” on August 8, 2025. The dynamic frontwoman, Rosali Middleman, commanded the stage on guitar and vocals, supported by an equally vibrant lineup: David Nance on bass and vocals, Jim Schroeder on guitar and vocals, and Kevin Donahue driving the rhythm on drums and vocals. Their collective energy forged an unforgettable session, brimming with raw power from start to finish.
The immersive experience was skillfully orchestrated by the KEXP team, with Cheryl Waters hosting the event. Kevin Suggs handled the engineering, while Julian Martlew meticulously mastered the sound. The visual spectacle was expertly captured by cinematographers Jim Beckmann, Carlos Cruz, Scott Holpainen, and Luke Knecht, with Scott Holpainen also taking charge of the final edit.
