About David Edward Roback
David Roback, co-founder of
Mazzy Star
and an important figure in the Paisley Underground scene, has died, according to a representative of the band.
Born in Los Angeles, Roback eventually went on to play a role in the Paisley Underground, the exploratory psychedelia revival scene that cropped up in the city during the early and mid-’80s. Roback was a co-founder of the Rain Parade, releasing one album with the band — their 1983 debut Emergency Third Rail Power Trip — before departing. He later formed Opal (originally known as Clay Allison) with Kendra Smith, formerly of fellow Paisley Underground group the Dream Syndicate. When Smith left in 1987, Roback teamed up with Hope Sandoval instead. They rechristened the band Mazzy Star.
