ROSALIE CUNNINGHAM

With her fearless creativity and glorious theatricality, Rosalie Cunningham is one of the most distinctive voices in British rock. A multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter of rare imagination, she first caused a stir with her acclaimed bands Purson and Ipso Facto before launching her solo career in 2019 with a Mercury Prize-nominated debut album on Cherry Red's Esoteric Antenna label. The album's success - Top 10 in the UK independent album charts and praised by The Times, Uncut, Classic Rock and Shindig! - heralded the arrival of a bold new creative force.

Since then, Rosalie's electrifying live shows have conquered stages across the UK and Europe, including several extensive tours and festival highlights such as Sweden Rock, Cropredy, Herzberg and Woodstock Forever. Her energetic live band of four virtuoso musicians adds a bombastic edge to Rosalie's diverse repertoire. Look forward to real Hammond organ and swirling Leslie effects in a duel with psychedelic twin-lead guitars, driving fuzz bass, four-part harmonies and even flute! "Live at Acapela", released in December 2023 via Machine Elf Records, captured some of that magic and led to Rosalie being named Female Vocalist of the Year by PROG Magazine.

With her third solo album, 'To Shoot Another Day', released in November 2024, she pushed her musical vision further into exciting new realms - a tribute to the fearless artistry, rich storytelling and imagination that make her one of rock's most captivating artists. As part of the most extensive tour for this album to date, Rosalie and the band played 121 concerts in 19 countries, selling out shows in Spain, France, Germany, Sweden and the UK.

This fall, she returns to Europe for her "Breaking The Fourth" tour. The set will include songs from her upcoming album "Rosalie's Fourth" for the first time, as well as favorites from her three previous albums and her time with Purson. Baroque n' roll, baby!
