There are no gimmicks with Rosie’s music; originally from Lewis and now based in Edinburgh, she radiates warmth and openness, and her story is wholly relatable.
Using poetic lyrics and beautiful melodies, What a Life tells a story of endings. The track references the hindsight and heartbreak of a past relationship and of leaving home -
With a similar ethereal musical style to the likes of Phoebe Bridgers, Laura Marling and Elliott Smith, Rosie is steadily making a name for herself.
Her debut single, So It Is, was a special moment captured with just one take and one mic in her parent’s garden just over a year ago. The song caught the attention of Spotify editorial teams as well as labels across the country.
Now working with Nettwerk Records, creating What a Life was Rosie’s first time working with a producer. She collaborated closely with Ross Hamilton (Seafret, Saint Phnx, Jack Savoretti), learning the art of trusting not just her own musical instincts, but that of others too.
What a Life appears to be a simple track, but it boasts a depth that is only amplified by gritty, muffled electric guitar tones Ross and Rosie introduced in the studio. The recording was a learning process for Rosie, and the resulting maturity and emotion in the single is palpable.
Rosie H Sullivan said: “This song is very personal and completely transparent; I wrote it at a difficult time, full of uncertainty and change. The lyrics are very close to my heart, and I think this really comes through. I needed to get into the zone for this one -
What a Life will be available to download and stream from Friday 16th September 2022.
