  • Bio

    "a finely crafted acoustic pop album with an absolutely delightful dreamy vocal..." "an album to set the spirit soaring, uplifting and imaginative" - Fatea Magazine My debut album Just A Glimmer is now available to buy and download online. CD's available now! Who is RoseRed? Some think she is a pixie, some a singer songwriter, others say shes a strange quiet gal..a lost soul, a jumping bean, a silly dag, and some even say shes just a frog dressed in human skin! The truth is Im all of the above haha! Im just someone who LOVES music I live, breathe and give birth to it. Ive been writing music since the age of 16, self taught guitarist and still learning more every single day. There are a thousand melodies running through my head and i use the guitar as my outlet, my release to get them out. All words and music come rolling out without a seconds thought, and most of the time what i say and write doesnt really make sense till some time has past. Other people seem to understand my music better than i do so that makes me happy. I could play guitar a whole day and not get bored. I believe that music is GOOD FOR THE SOUL. Its all good no matter the form. Its in the air we breathe, and if you just listen you will hear it blowing in the wind. There is something so magical about playing in time and in pure synch with other people, this is a feeling i love and can do all day and for the rest of my life. I try to do as many gigs as possible and you will often find me roaming around the streets of London with a guitar or bass on my back, Kazoo in my pocket and egg shaker in bag.....I have played to audiences ranging from 150 people, to just a cosy couple siting in the corner staring into each others eyes, to just some wooden bar stools and tables and bar staff. ..After a few years of putting together a DIY home studio and much blood sweat and tears and pixie tantrums Ive finally finished my debut album Just A Glimmer! Im also always looking for cello players/ violin players, guitarists, bassists and kazooists to gig with so if you know any or are interested in playing live with me let me know. Im also available to play at parties!, i love them and think its the perfect environment to play. I like relaxed places with an audience who just want to have a laugh. Good vibes, good energy all round! Also im available to make music soundtracks for any project drop me a message. Im also the bass player in a kick ass band called ON THE BORDERLINE Together we play around London venues such as the Bull & Gate and Hope & Anchor. Check out our website sometime ON THE BORDERLINE.

    "Rosered is a pixie of perfection, writing silver-tongued melodies that you might dance to if you found yourself becharmed in a fairy ring. But listen to the lyrics and find yourself brought gently to earth by a healthy dose of realism. Just don't tell the pixies! Welcome to the world of Rosered."..Claire Robson~Honeywitch "A new age female Bob Dylan....".... Clare Blackman... Iv'e been told that i sound like a range of people...but i don't really see it at all myself. Iv'e had Alanis Morrisette, Sheryl Crow, Nirvana!! The Waifs!, Juliana Hatfield, Mary Lord and Lisa Loeb......I dont think i sound like any of them..... What do you think? Im often asked what type of music i play and this is how i describe my musical rantings...folky rocky music that pixies would dance to....I WRITE MUSIC FOR THE PIXIES!!
