Behind the Music: Interview with Rosie Frater-Taylor
‘If you start making music with the goal of getting positive industry feedback, you’re in danger of diluting the writing.’
Specialised, dedicated, and detailed music coverage.
‘If you start making music with the goal of getting positive industry feedback, you’re in danger of diluting the writing.’
‘Music has always been a therapeutic tool for me – a vehicle for expressing a really powerful journey of transformation.’
‘We know that music exists to connect with people – they consume it because they can relate to it.’
‘It’s so easy for the inner critic to pipe up when you are working alone.’
‘Whenever I have been faced with adversity, thinking about my next project has always helped me.’
‘To me, jazz is almost more of an ethos or a philosophy towards music-making than a musical genre.’
‘It shouldn’t be overlooked that music is as much about maximising how good you can feel, as it is about lifting you up.’
‘We find that melodies are more important than lyrics, so the music usually comes first.’
‘I don’t think I have an excessive need for my own experiences to shine through, it’s more about what the song wants.’
‘When we recorded our first album, none of the band had played together before – now most of us live with each other!’
‘Through music I’m able to have a really strong connection to my imagination – I hope I ignite that in other people too.’
‘We pride ourselves on the energy of our live shows – we really wanted that to resonate through the new EP.’
