Rosie Darling - Lanterns
Rarely does pop capture a beauty & delicacy to its sound as it does on the new album, Lanterns, by Rosie Darling.
Born in Boston & now based out of Los Angeles, Rosie's music is deeply intimate & introspective. While this is the case Lanterns somehow manages to maintain an air of pop perfection & catchiness. One moment you'll be on the verge of sympathetic tears only to suddenly be pulled into pure joy.
Rosie's special ability to balance these sides of her songwriting makes Lanterns an enigmatic release. Lanterns wouldn't feel out of place in an intimate, acoustic setting one night & then just as at home in a big theatre venue with the full gambit of production behind it.
Thematically Lanterns can best be summarised through Rosie's lyrics from Only Fools.
"I'm learning how to leave it all behind... Only Fools would do the same thing twice. I know better this time."
Throughout this record, Rosie touches on all facets of love, intimacy & loss. From the love between friends, family or romantic partners. In doing so Rosie is deeply introspective as she explores the painful lessons we all endure in our lifetimes.
As an Australian music fan, we implore our local readers to check out Rosie's new album. You're going to want to want in on the ground floor so you can say you listened to her before she became one of the biggest acts on the planet.
We can’t wait for the inevitable Australia tour of Lanterns & Rosie Darling.
