Baby Rose Wins

Baby Rose, a singer-songwriter, won a Grammy for Leon Thomas’s album MUTT.
She grew up on her father’s funk and soul records, her mother’s hip-hop songwriting, got a piano at age 9, and now composes with live players and starts each song from a blank space.
She calls her tour a labor of love and an investment, warns AI cannot replicate taste or soul, and cites Beyoncé as a role model.

Rose will open Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving Live tour with a 35-minute set as the opener.
The arena tour launches on the day YEARNALISM drops and will visit San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, Toronto and Austin.
Rose calls YEARNALISM a documentation and study of desire, based on “Yearners Anonymous” listening circles that act as group therapy.
She plans a “wall of sound” onstage with live horns and occasional vinyl playback.
