Rosie Holloway
Following in the long-line of sultry but vulnerable London soulstresses, Rosie’s lyrics are unapologetically emotional and empowering. Her songs range from powerful pieces of social commentary to cathartic, in-your-face anthems. She’s completely backed by a grassroots following.
Growing up on London’s Mozart Estate, she has also been classically trained in singing, guitar, piano and violin since the age of 5 and her late father used to write with the likes of Labi Siffre. When she’s not out dancing somewhere to UKG, Rosie can be found displaying her captivating blend of pop, soul and indie in venues across the UK, her signature leopard print madcat guitar in tow.
