About
Effortlessly shapeshifting across all of their releases, Caroline Rose’s albums blend psychobilly, pop, shoegaze, alt-country, folk, electronic, and experimental music. They infuse satire, perspective-shifting, film-inspired narratives, and an array of storytelling devices that transport listeners straight into Rose’s self-described “weird buffet” of a mind. With each album—from the alt-country folk of <a href="spotify:album:14tLWuboMq3NyGJV4lXkyk" data-name="I Will Not Be Afraid">I Will Not Be Afraid</a>, to the psychobilly of <a href="spotify:album:6QzLXU46LVrpSoLFDGDKxx" data-name="LONER">LONER</a>, and 2020's brilliant self-produced synthpop album <a href="spotify:album:0iKUlriBGhJ9Fvnex5Xi7w" data-name="Superstar">Superstar</a> —Rose crafts a unique, irresistible, and multifaceted character that draws the listener into their world. 2023’s moody and exploratory release, <a href="spotify:album:5Mp4C3BHi9AxPkgexCT8sg" data-name="The Art of Forgetting">The Art of Forgetting</a>, was nominated for a Grammy (Best Recording Package, art directed by Caroline Rose). Rose continues to bring their live show across North America, Europe, and the UK through a mix of solo performances in exclusively independent venues, raucous full-band productions, and even orchestral shows with the likes of the London Contemporary Orchestra and Metropolis Ensemble. On 'year of the slug', released exclusively on Bandcamp on February 7, 2025, there is no pretense—no bells, whistles, or heavy production. “Sometimes it’s nice to have a pearl before it’s polished,” Rose says. Recorded in GarageBand from a phone, slug offers quality songs in their rawest form—delivered straight to the listener with no middleman. It will not be available on streaming platforms.
