Rosalie Cunningham live at The Louisiana, Bristol. Thursday, 13th March 2025
with support from Kavus Torabi ( Gong )
With her highly anticipated third solo studio album, To Shoot Another Day, out on November 1 2024, multiple award-winning singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Rosalie Cunningham is finally on the cusp of reaping the rewards of staunch dedication to her chosen life path.
Coming to prominence through her former bands Purson and Ipso Facto, Rosalie embarked on her solo career in 2019, releasing her Mercury Music Prize nominated, eponymous début album through Cherry Red label Esoteric Antenna, earning a Top 10 placing in the UK’s official independent chart, and attracting fantastic reviews and stellar ratings from Classic Rock, Uncut, Mojo and Kerrang.
Rosalie built on her burgeoning reputation as an original, thought-provoking songwriter and musician with the release of her second solo album Two Piece Puzzle to universal acclaim in 2022.
Rosalie’s first three solo studio albums: her self-titled début, Two Piece Puzzle and the new To Shoot Another Day.
Reviews included:
The Times - 4/5 ‘fantastic’;
Powerplay - 10/10 ‘a heady mix... infused with Rosalie’s unique ability to entertain and enthral the listener’;
Shindig - 5/5 ‘sexy, loud and bursting with ideas’;
Uncut - 8/10 ‘dazzling’.
Throughout the remainder of that year and 2023, an extensive and punishing touring schedule taking in venues and festivals throughout the UK and Europe gave audiences the opportunity to experience Rosalie’s compelling, captivating and charismatic live performance at first hand.
These, together with the acclamation afforded to Two Piece Puzzle, culminated in her being named Female Vocalist of the Year in January 2023 by the readers of PROG magazine.
