Up and coming guitarist and vocalist, with a powerful emotional range and depth.
Fast-emerging British singer-songwriter and guitarist Rosie Frater-Taylor is widely regarded as a virtuoso guitarist and a vocalist with a powerful emotional range and depth.
Rosie Frater-Taylor’s new album Featherweight deftly blurs the boundaries between rock, alt pop, neo soul, new-school jazz and folk. Drawing influence from the likes of Joni Mitchell, through PJ Harvey and Kate Bush, to the rockier roster – where John Mayer, Meshell Ndegeocello, St Vincent and Madison Cunningham hold court, Featherweight asserts an emotional and musical maturity through the exploration of deep emotional themes such as duality and gender and a vast selection of sound-worlds all tied together by Rosie’s trademark songwriting, guitar and vocal style.
Rosie independently released and produced her sophomore album Bloom, in 2021. This garnered in excess of three million streams, was nominated at Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Awards, and took Rosie and her trio across the UK and Europe for over 60 live shows. This included performances on the main stage at We Out Here festival, the Barbican for International Women’s Day and several shows supporting Madison Cunningham.
