BIO
Rose White is a London based singer songwriter whose playful pop/soul/funk grooves mix with infectious hooks and empowering energy.
Wrapping her husky voice, that has drawn comparisons to Duffy, Paloma Faith and Sia, around the full range of emotions, Rose wants to speak openly about the topics we all think about, but are afraid to say out loud.
Polish born Rose, an ex pro ballroom dancer and a law student, arrived in London aged 20 with 300 pounds, 2 suitcases and 0 connections. Working her way up the ladder on the open mic circuit, eventually headlining clubs with her band, she released her debut EP ‘One Fourth Mark’ in 2022 to glowing reviews and placements on editorial playlists.
If Paloma Faith and Duffy had a baby…
MY STORY
Raised in a musical household filled with Polish punk and international rock, teenage Rose listened a lot to The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Joy Division. Later musical discoveries included jazz greats like Nina Simone, soul legends James Brown and Stevie Wonder, as well as strong female voices of the early 2000s such as Christina Aquilera, Beyonce, Amy Winehouse and Annie Lennox. Remnants of all these influences, along with traces of RAYE, Jorja Smith and Joy Crookes, can still be found in Rose’s material, making it, as Rose puts it, sound a little bit like: “Imagine if Amy Winehouse and Olivia Dean had a baby.”
In 2024, Rose became a recipient of a Next Level Award sponsored by Help Musicians Organisation, released 3 singles and performed two headline shows: one taking place at London’s iconic Fiddler’s Elbow and the other being a debut in her homeland Poland; a ‘One Night Only’ acoustic experience in Poznan’s Kino Rialto.
