The Rosebuds are an indie rock band from Raleigh, North Carolina, United States. (They are not the original vocal group the Rosebuds who recorded for George Goldner's Gee Records in the 1950s.) Its current members are Ivan Howard (vocals/guitar/ drums/ bass/keyboards/programming) and Kelly Crisp (vocals/keyboard/drums/guitar). Billy Alphin had played drums on the album "The Rosebuds Make Out" and Lee Waters played drums on the record "Birds Make Good Neighbors".

Howard and Crisp met while in college in Wilmington, North Carolina. That fall, they moved to nearby Raleigh and joined with drummer Billy Alphin of Schooner to form The Rosebuds. Merge Records discovered their demo in early 2003 and released "The Rosebuds Make Out" as a full-length debut album that October.

Following that recording, Alphin left the group and was replaced by Jonathan Bass for their 2003 touring schedule. "The Rosebuds Unwind", an EP with six songs, was released in April 2005, followed by "Birds Make Good Neighbors" in September. The Rosebuds are now joined by Giorgio Angelini and Matt McCaughan on drums for shows and tours. In the premiere episode of the series "Dirt", in one scene the song "4-Track Love Song" from "Birds Make Good Neighbors" is played in the background. Their third album, Night of the Furies, was released in April of 2007. A fourth full-length, with a yet to be announced title, is expected to be released in Fall of 2008.

In 2007, The Rosebuds covered the Pixies "Break My Body" for the American Laundromat Records compilation "Dig For Fire - a tribute to PIXIES". OK Go, They Might Be Giants, and British Sea Power also contributed to the project.

In 2008, the band again covered a song for American Laundromat Records. This time it was the Cure's "The Walk" for "Just Like Heaven - a tribute to The Cure". The Wedding Present, Dean & Britta, The Brunettes, and The Submarines also contributed tracks for the project.
