ROSIE
Rosie was an American pop group from New York, United States. The group existed from 1975 to 1978 and consisted of David Lasley, Lana Marrano (née Susan Joan Gaynes) and Lynn Pitney, all of whom were cast members and met during the touring show of Hair. Lasley wrote all the songs, mostly with Marrano.
In 1975, Rosie performed as back-up singers for Genya Ravan at her Reno Sweeney show, where they also performed one of their own songs. Ravan brought the group to Mike Berniker at RCA where they put on a live performance of their songs.
I was floored by it...this was blue-eyed soul. I wanted to produce them so bad it hurt. I got on the phone to Mike Berniker and raved about how good Rosie was...we set up a meeting...I called for David, Lynn, Lana and their pianist to come, and they pitched straight into a live performance
