Rose Gray

Can't believe she doesn't have a thread already because she's been getting so much buzz in the UK the last few months. Anyway, Rose Gray is a singer-songwriter from East London. Her first EP/minialbum is out now, titled Dancing, Drinking, Talking, Thinking

Every single song she's put out so far has been impeccable, but my favorites are 'Save Your Tears', 'High Again' (not on the EP), 'Same Cloud'

For fans of Lily Allen, Amy Winehouse, Jorja Smith, Arlo Parks, etc





 
Well, I just listened to Save Your Tears

Just finished listening to the EP, and it's so good. It really feels somewhat like a mix between Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse, but make it 2021. It's amazing how she manages to pull off huge bops (the house elements in some songs definitely caught me surprise, in a good way) and also much more soft and introspective songs, and still make it all feel consistent. And the Saint Etienne cover is the cherry on top of the cake. In summary, stanning is what I'm doing. Thanks so much for the rec @enricll and @Trouble in Paradise!
 
Not me seeing you listen on my Spotify friends and feeling that rush of joy!! Glad you liked it!

Yeah, I'm working on my monthly Chart Ballot right now & it's probably getting points, so it reminded me I forgot to post here.

The Lily & Amy comparisons are good. I'm getting some other good artist vibes I haven't quite dialed in yet. Ultimately though, I feel like she might be planting her own little thing.

Yes! The EP definitely feels a bit like a pastiche of great references with her finding her voice within all that. I have faith that if she is given the chance to make an album it’ll be amazing!
