On her forthcoming Rosemary EP, she perfects her darkpop sound, channeling contemporaries like CHVRCHES and Purity Ring for a stadium-sized indie sound. True story – she almost died making the music videos for the singles. Staying up all night to shoot “Runaway Angels”, she passed out driving her team to the location for “White Lies” the next day, waking up to the sound of the van scraping the railing.
Karolina Rose is a Polish-American artist with her heart currently based somewhere between LA, NYC and Europe. Often compared to artists such as Kate Bush, Amy Lee and Florence Welch, Karolina displays her unique brand of ‘noir rose pop’: alluring, seductive and layered, in her latest single « Objection » from her sophomore project produced with Elliot Jacobson (Allie X, Elle King, Vérité). Karolina’s debut EP INVICTA was released in February 2019, merging themes of human strength, courage and determination with vivid electronic production by famed producer Andros Rodriguez (Madonna, Shakira, Florence & The Machine). 2019 also saw Karolina make her Polish primetime television debut, playlisted by over 150 radio stations in the U.S., plus ink a licensing deal with MTV, E!, Netflix, A&E, TLC, and The Discovery Channel as well as a publishing deal with The 411 Music Group.
Emerging from her sacred garden, she decided to express herself openly in song. Under a pale, crystal light, she began busily and dutifully pouring her passion into her poetry and melodies, inspired by her own transformation and sudden plunge into another world. She gave herself entirely until her heart burst. And then, she picked up the pieces and rebuilt herself, over and over. She continues to turn the other cheek. Her songs aren’t sad. They are more of a soul-searching journey with evident depth derived from both relatable life experiences and a learned mind. With her force-of-nature vocals, Karolina Rose is dark daydream soul pop made out of fine poetic prose mixed with emotive, feminine power.
