Lew Apollo and Rosie Flores:Texas Radio Live

Lew Apollo

Lew Apollo is a rising soul artist whose music blends vulnerability with genre-bending style. Born in rural Northern Minnesota, he fuses the storytelling of Bob Dylan with the eclectic artistry of Prince, while drawing inspiration from Hozier, Leon Bridges, and Labrinth. Catalyzed by his father’s passing in 2022, Lew channels deep struggles into lush soundscapes defined by hypnotic guitar, rich production, and a sultry voice. His 2023 debut EP led to sold-out shows and marked him as an artist to watch. With his self-produced debut album Fool’s Gold arriving August 8, 2025, Lew continues redefining modern soul music.

Rosie Flores

The story of Rosie Flores’s career is long and winding road that curves like a rollercoaster at a theme park. After years of honing her craft as a songwriter and guitarist, she ended up in Los Angeles playing the Palomino Club, winning every talent contest she could get her guitar licks on. Soon afterwards played the country bar scene in LA for a few years before taking a left turn into a Punk rockin’ female group called the Screamin’ Sirens. They recorded and released “Fiesta” for Enigma Records produced by Brian Ahern (Emmy Lou Harris) followed by some US touring ripping a hole through the South and destroying the minds of young men. Things changed when offers came in to start opening just solo acoustic for quite a lot of concert shows from the coast of California to New York, for the likes of Jerry Lee Lewis, John Prine, Steve Goodman, Elvin Bishop, David Lindley, Taj Mahal and Jerry Garcia. Rosie started on a new phase to find a producer and get her songs recorded which led to her Warner Bros /Reprise deal out of Nashville releasing the acclaimed 1987 “Rosie Flores” produced by Pete Anderson
