Hi, I'm Rose and I kinda think bios are boring. So, here is a little "about me" letter. I am a 23-year-old singer/songwriter. I was born in NYC and raised in Nashville, TN. You might say I’m a "little bit country a little bit rock and roll", but then again, you might be accused of using a cheesy cliché.
Some of my favorite artists are: Lucinda Williams, Patty Griffin, John Hiatt, Ray Lamontagne, Fiona Apple, the pre-"Intuition" Jewel, and Elvis Costello, but I am really more of a song fan than a fan of any particular artist or style of music. I really listen to the lyrics of songs and I want to know what they mean. I want to know the story behind the song. All of my songs have a story. I try to be really obvious about what I'm singing about. I can only hope that my music can be kind of a friend to people. I'd love it for someone to hear one of my songs and think , "wow, I've been there, I've been through that or felt that way, that's me !". I love it when songs make me feel that way.My father, singer/songwriter, Billy Falcon, has heavily influenced my writing (and not to mention, my keen sense of humor-lol! ). I guess I didn't really have a choice. I mean, I'd be in bed trying to sleep and all I would hear is him wailing his latest tune. Looking back, I am now thankful for that annoyance.

Anyway.. not to get off track... let me finish up...
My self-titled debut was released on Columbia/Sony New York in 2003. It was very "pop" I was very young! I had a great time and enjoyed seeing myself jump up and down and singing into a hair brush on the Disney Channel. Every girls dream….haha. I've been lucky enough to have songs in many tv shows ,movies and commercials, ( "Confessions of A Teenage Drama Queen", "The Master of Disguise", "Inspector Gadget 2","Raising Helen", "Dawson's Creek", The Build A Bear Workshop , JC Penny, Verizon Wireless, and Conneticare).
I have spent the last couple of years writing songs and refining my "sound". I have also been performing with my dad, doing a small tour of house concerts. We continue to do these shows all over the U.S.
(and anywhere else you want us !).
I am currently working on my second record and I am very excited about it. In the meantime , I have a a few new songs for you to check out here on the site.
Enjoy !
Rose Falcon:
Her amazing new songs are more mature,
and edgier, reflecting her maturity and growth
as a singer and songwriter.
"If Tom Petty were female he'd sound something like this. Really great vocals and production. Love the story of the songwriting.Good stuff."

Hey Rose: I hope Phil told you I am coming to town with the whole band to play 3 nights June 17-20th....can't wait to rock with you and Dad at the Sowing Circle!!!! I already told him beers on me!! see you in 2 weeks....J
I work with Robin Ball\Todd Bradley. I'll be playing this Fri at 7PM at Starbucks on Nolansville Rd. I would love if you could come by for a while and let me know what you think!
hey rose, thanks! it was great having a big family party... just wish the whole family could have been there for the graduation... we need to have a big reunion party or something this summer with everyone!
Thanks for the sweet compliments- I really enjoyed spending time with you guys too ! Everyone at work REALLY enjoyed your music- thanks again for sharing !
Hey, What's one gotta do to get a CD of yours? ;) We should get together and hang out again soon.. Maybe do a cookout or something. I'm sure Maria can come up with an idea. :) I hope you're doing well.
So glad I checked up on your music the other day - what an artist!
I, actually, bought your LP that came out ages ago (2003?) and was pleasantly surprised with the diversity of the tracks (and the writing credits, you were young!). Have to say "Innocent" is what grabbed me - how you talk about your songs connecting with peole's stories on your official website...that's exactly how I feel listening to that song to this day, hah.
Your new material is fantastic. I'll definitely be buying!
Rose
