Rosalie James’ style forms around buoyancy. With dreamy vocals, soft atmospheres, and dandelion-like melodies, her soundscapes are as scintillating as they are mellow. Inspired by the work of Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush, Fleetwood Mac, and other contemporary alt folk artists like Elliot Smith and Sharon Van Etten, her music is like a calligraphy script. It is well-formed, sophisticated, elegant, and polished with a soft sense of drama and vulnerability. Blending the old and the new with her own creative interpretations and messages, Rosalie James is definitely someone you have to keep in your sonic orbit.
Her latest release is ‘Island’ featuring Storefront Church. It is a mellow indie expanse curving with all the melancholy, nostalgia, and musical romanticism. Dressed with airy vocal frills, throwback sentiments, poetic lyrics, and an enveloping melodrama, it is reminiscent of a Lana Del Rey track. Neo-classicals, synths, acoustics, all rise into her voice. Storefront Church’s baritones stretch into euphoric falsettos beautifully fusing with Rosalie’s dreamy pastel aesthetics. And the result is an arrestingly serene musical scene. Listen Now!
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
