With recent posts on my musical loves BE GOOD and Low Island (who are both absolutely smashing it) I'm really embracing the Oxford scene on the blog currently. It's always felt a bit like the blog belongs to Oxford and that it has a bit of an affinity to homegrown talent, even if I am living 90 miles away now...
The desire to share brilliant music from the city isn't stopping anytime soon, and I'm really excited for you all to hear Oxford born singer-songwriter Rosie Shaw. Her debut EP Sometime Soon was released last week, with previous singles Temporary Love and Summer Doesn't Feel The Same alongside two new songs. The title track is a highlight for me, a stripped back acoustic which packs an emotional punch.
I'm not really one for a 'if you like this...' comparison often, but this is certainly one for fans of the likes of Phoebe Bridgers, Brooke Bentham and Maggie Rogers. A varied set of tracks offer a stunning showcase of Rosie's vocals and songwriting. It feels inherently sad, but simultaneously like a warm musical hug... I can't wait to hear more!
