Oh Rose Share Baby

I will admit, that the “wah, wah” present from the beginning of this new Oh, Rose song might be off-putting to folks, but don’t give up, just give into the song. Singer Olivia Rose has this remarkable voice; it has this striking elegance that soars, yet is able to retreat to the faintest whisper. As you get through the song’s building emotion, the earlier “wah, wah” moments seem like a build up, and perhaps a thematic reference to the song’s title. That build up is unleashed just beyond the 2 minute mark, which is where I truly fell in love with the song before going back to and listen again and again. This tune appears on While My Father Sleeps, the new album out August 23rd via Park the Van.

So Pleased To Meet You: Oh, Rose

Today, I’d like to introduce you to Olympia, Washington natives, Oh, Rose, who will win your heart with their hodgepodge sound of lo-fi indie rock. Last month, they released Seven, their debut full length album, and it’s up on their Soundcloud Page for you to stream. Personally, when I first took a listen to “Lottery” below, I was pulled in by the distinctive vocal yelp of leading lady, Olivia Rose. The song is a nice jam: fuzzy guitars and a quick drum beat will certainly get you dancing on this Tuesday.
