Talia Rose

• Folk
• Singer/Songwriter

Talia Rose has been a fixture of the Boston music scene for nearly a decade. An early love of modern fingerstyle guitar led her to seek inspiration and mentorship from guitarists including Thomas Leeb and Jon Gomm. Her 2019 release What Goes Unmentioned marked the beginning of an exploration of her voice as a songwriter. Talia’s writing combines intricate guitar accompaniment and a complex understanding of harmony with carefully crafted, deeply personal lyrics. Her songs reflect elements of the music she grew up with; from the melodic sensibilities of Imogen Heap, to the vulnerability of Adrianne Lenker, to the wittiness of Prefab Sprout. Perhaps best known for her viral song about the Mars Rover, Talia’s music elicits tenderness from unexpected places. Talia Rose’s debut full-length album, Carry it Closely will be released in August 2024. With Carry it Closely, Talia brings you into her world, both emotionally and sonically. Woven into her “melodic currents and fluent songcraft” (Americana UK), are stories of heartbreak, the fantasies of parenthood, and the struggle of making peace with one’s current stage of life. The album’s title is a nod to the many people, places, and feelings Rose carries closely with her, with each track revealing something she holds dear. The record draws from a number of Rose’s influences; her background in Jazz melds seamlessly with her new love of folk and bluegrass, alongside elements of chamber-pop and indie-rock.
