Superior musical minds following their hearts”

Mojo

THE BAND

Singer-songwriter ROSIE BROWN and long-time musical partner, co-writer and producer BERND REST call on the exceptional talents of SIMON RUSSELL (bass) and PAUL MAY (drums) to create a mesmerising sonic picture.

Weaving folk, jazz and blues influences, with glimpses of Joni Mitchell, Nick Drake and vintage John Martyn, the band expresses a musical sensibility all of its own. Drawing on country, 60s surf and classical, this is beguiling and intricate music, filmic and funky, full of emotion. Songs with surfaces light and shimmering, evocative of landscape, love, loss, darkness and light.

REVIEWS

“Elemental, sensual... often reminiscent of John Martyn circa Bless the Weather, but on the skewed One Horse Tango, Austrian guitarist and arranger Bernd Rest conjures something more evocative of Les Paul backed by Goldfrapp.”
Q Magazine
“Brown is the deserved star of the show, with a beautifully expressive, iceberg-melting voice that twists and turns artfully all over the songs.”
The List
“This sparkling record will hearten those who thought that the kind of pastoral arranging skills with which Robert Kirby furnished Nick Drake were history... This is the real McCoy.”
Mojo
“The affecting vocal delivery and sparse acoustic instrumentation lend this a left-field feel akin to Cat Power or Stina Nordenstam.”
Music Week
"The ethereal vocalist and Bernd Rest's musical collective produce an entrancing series of jazzy arrangements."
The Independent
"Quite wonderful bass-heavy yet folkily soulful songs."
Time Out
"The music of Rosie Brown weaves a wondrous spell... uniquely affecting sounds which unsettle as they seduce."
Mojo
"There’s an angular, jazzy touch that suggests Brown is much more than the latest cute girl with a guitar… this is the sort of music Roni Size might be making if he’d discovered Joni Mitchell instead of drum machines."
Q Magazine
"Rosie's vocals conjure up hints of Joni Mitchell in her heyday... Check this lady out. She should, by rights, be massive."
Straight No Chaser
