Lyrically raw, socially conscious fusion-pop; from hot, sensual club
tracks to heart-felt acoustic sounds - Tokyo nightlife meets Vancouver
chill
MusicDish Network, the artist development arm of MusicDish LLC, a
leading music magazine publisher and marketing firm, announced the
addition of Vancouver/Tokyo-based Pop Fusion singer/songwriter Rose
Beach to its roster. MusicDish will provide full online management
sup****t, including brand development and marketing, as well as
representation at major music conferences such as New Music West 2007,
NXNE and Popkomm.
"Rose exactly represents the new breed of independent artists:
globally focused, self starters that are able to bridge culture,
language and values for a worldwide audience," commented MusicDish
founder Eric de Fontenay. "The fact that she sold 50,000 CDs in Japan
with no industry sup****t speaks volumes."
Her debut CD "Family Love" boasts mature songs that blend a folk
singer's lyrical depth, a pop singer's catchy melodies, and a hip hop
diva's sultry yet raw vocal power into a unique sound. Starting in the
underground - the streets of Vancouver and Tokyo - she is rising into
the musical mainstream, because people's ears thirst for something
real that they can feel. Currently, she is blowing up in Japan, where
she has sold more than 50,000 records and performs weekly; all without
the aid of any record label or music biz machinery.
In addition to her heavy independent CD sales, Rose Beach has been
interviewed and received heavy airplay on Co-op Radio in her home base
of Vancouver. She has also been interviewed and played on Inter-FM
Radio in Tokyo. Rose was recently featured in the January 2007 issue
of Hiragana Times.
Born in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada and raised primarily in
Saskatchewan by a strong, loving and musically inclined mother of
Canadian aboriginal ancestry and a farmer stepfather with a love of
country music, she had the dream of music early in life. This dream
took Rose to Vancouver, where she fronted a trip hop band called The
Loxley Project. At the same time, she began to build a love affair
with Japan, working in many of Tokyo's famous clubs, including the
world renown Club Asia. Her solo work and the energy of the Tokyo
music scene caused Rose Beach to decide to expand her musical
knowledge and to become a more serious and focused producer and
performer. She entered music engineering school at Columbia Academy in
Vancouver and graduated from the Digital Analog Recording Arts Program
in June 2005.
