Hello. Sorry that Rosie and The Goldbug have broken up. The reason was and rather complicated and it was very much out of our control and in the hands of the Others. To be honest with you it is very sad and boring so I'm not even going to bother you with it. All I can do is say I'm sorry if we let you down in anyway. I want to make it better... so
the good news is that I have started a new project called RubyVamp. Check it out on the friends link below or go to www.myspace.com/rubyvampmusic. If you liked you Rosie you will love Ruby. I promise!

”Rosie And The Goldbug have become one of the hottest names to drop on the indie scene.... sounding like Siouxie Sioux slapping Gwen Stefani over a bed of spiky synths” – CLASH
“Rosie Vanier’s band have changed the template for the average girl-fronted pop outfit…a change for the better” – DAILY MIRROR 4/5
“Rosie Vanier has a voice which leaps from sugary pop to operatic whoops, her ivories chiming through a repertoire ranging from the turbulent to the serene” – INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY 4/5
“Promising Cornish twisted-pop trio….in the lush single ‘Lover’ they display potential, swagger and much charisma” – UNCUT 4/5
BAND OF THE DAY - “…their mix of electronics and rock is more rough and ragged than Ladyhawke's shiny cyber-disco”- GUARDIAN
“'Rosie is more often than not seen bashing the shite out of her piano with her elbows. You'd be stupid not to catch her”– NME
“It’s rare to find well-written pop songs presented in a substantial and enthusiastic way and even rarer to have that realised in an 11 track record. A + + + + + +” – ARTROCKER 5/5
ALBUM OF THE WEEK - “The glamazonian ball-busting attitude of Siouxsie Sioux”- BOYZ 5/5
SONG OF THE DAY “…should fit in somewhere nicely between Gwen Stefani and Dragonette in your CD collection… - POPJUSTICE
