Seattle Shakes as Rolling Quartz Unleashes Rock Fury at El Corazon

SEATTLE (May 22, 2025) – Rolling Quartz returned to Seattle on Thursday night and delivered an explosive performance at El Corazon, leaving no doubt that this all female Korean rock band was here to conquer.

Formed under Rolling Star Entertainment, Rolling Quartz, made up of members Arem, Hyunjung, Iree, Jayoung and Yeongeun, debuted in 2020 with their single “Blaze.” Since then, they have steadily built an international following, combining high octane rock with fierce stage presence and undeniable musical talent.

Their latest North American tour, “Stand Up,” has been a much anticipated event for fans across the continent. Seattle, the second to last stop before the tour finale in Vancouver, British Columbia, saw a packed crowd of devoted Diadems, the name for Rolling Quartz’s growing global fanbase. Many fans had been waiting since the band’s last Seattle appearance at the Fun House in 2023, and the excitement in the air was palpable long before the lights dimmed.

Far from showing signs of tour fatigue, the band tore into their set with an energy that felt like opening night. From the moment they stepped on stage, Rolling Quartz brought a relentless musical assault that proved their reputation as a must see live act.

The band offered multiple fan experience tiers for this tour, including meet and greets, soundcheck viewings, signed albums, and individual photo opportunities with each member. These elevated packages helped create a deeper connection between artist and audience, showcasing the band’s commitment to fan service and interaction.

While studio recordings offer a solid introduction to the band’s music, Rolling Quartz is meant to be experienced live. Their sound is loud, fast, emotionally raw and hits with even greater intensity in person. The members commanded the stage with confidence, their performance radiating throughout the venue. And the Diadems gave it right back, singing, shouting and raising their hands high in solidarity and celebration. The energy in the room was nothing short of electric.

The setlist featured powerful originals like “Blaze,” “Victory” and “Stand Up,” each one delivered with precision and passion. The band also showcased their versatility with covers that spanned genres, from Motley Crüe’s “Kickstart My Heart” to Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” and the rock ballad “Azalea” by MAYA. These familiar hits gave fans a chance to join in and belt out the lyrics, strengthening the communal spirit of the evening.

Throughout the show, guitar picks could be seen sailing over the crowd as fans scrambled to catch a piece of the moment. Each solo, whether on guitar, bass, drums or vocals, was a masterclass in technical skill and raw performance. Yet even with all the power on display, the warmth and camaraderie between band members added layers of emotional depth and authenticity to the show.

As the final notes rang out and the band took their bows, one thing was clear: Seattle had just witnessed something special. Rolling Quartz left their mark on the city once again, and fans are already eagerly awaiting their return.

With the tour having concluded in Vancouver, B.C., the “Stand Up” tour solidified Rolling Quartz as one of the most exciting international rock acts to watch. Their electrifying performances across North America, culminating in their unforgettable Seattle show, left a lasting impression on fans and cemented their reputation as a powerhouse in the global rock scene.
