Best known for her emotional first single, "Luminous", released in 2003 and winner of "Best Song of 2004" at the International Online Music Awards, Rose has just released her first full-length CD, "Close Your Eyes".
In the fall of 2003, Rose released her first single, "Luminous", which was played on Internet radio stations all over the US and in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands as well. "Luminous" went on to win "Best Song of 2004" at the International Online Music Awards, and Rose was nominated for "Best Female Vocalist" at the IOMAs as well.
In late 2004, Rose released her second single, "Whisper", while working on recording her full-length debut CD, "Close Your Eyes". "Whisper" went straight to the top of the Jazz charts at many online music distributors, including Soundclick, Broadjam, and Besonic.com.
"Whisper" then caught the attention of 20Max Films, an independent film company in Venice Beach, California, and was chosen for use in the movie "Monkey Love". "Monkey Love" is a quirky romantic comedy featuring Amy Stewart, Jeremy Renner, and Seamus Dever, and "Whisper" creates a gentle, misty atmosphere at a sweet moment in the film. This movie is now out on video - check the video store near you!
This year, Rose has joined forces with producer David Tucker and has begun work on her new CD, "RAIN". Mr. Tucker has put together a dream team of musicians, hand-picked to fit Rose's passionate, elegant musical style, and they will be in the studio during the winter of '05/'06. "RAIN" is due to be released in March of 2006. Stay tuned!
