Free, fresh and full of life, London-based rising star Rose Gray is carving out her own place in the cosmos with her euphoric debut album Louder, Please, and she wants to bring you with her.

“I think a big part of the music I make now is because of some of the incredible nights I’ve had out and songs I’ve heard and thought, ‘I’m going to do something like this’, discovering this crazy music repertoire. It’s so vast, dance music; that’s also something that I learned. I came into dance music from a classically trained angle: I grew up idolising Amy Winehouse, at school I started singing at jazz clubs to earn a bit of money. And then I found the clubs. I found this amazing subculture of music.”

 

“Can you play it a little louder, please?” a voice calls out from the quiet. Whether in the studio, the club, on the decks or at home, singer, songwriter and DJ Rose Gray wants music to take over, to feel it deep in her bones. For her debut album – aptly titled Louder, Please – she’s ready to pass over that feeling to her audience too. Find out more in our cover story for The Artists Vol. 1 where Rose talks club culture, making music in LA with Justin Tranter, and how this album has been a long time coming.
