Sydney Rose Artistfacts

2003
Sydney Rose is a singer-songwriter whose music often explores themes of relationships, heartbreak, anxiety, and personal struggles.
Rose grew up in a small town outside Atlanta, experiencing a wide range of music from a young age. Her parents and brother were all music lovers, though none of them played instruments or sang professionally.
Rose began singing in her church worship group and later joined her school chorus and took part in theater. She started playing music by picking up a ukulele, then took piano lessons and eventually taught herself to play the guitar.
She gained popularity during the pandemic by posting cover songs on TikTok. Her cover of "Turning Page" by Sleeping At Last was particularly successful, amassing over 30 million streams.
Rose was an artsy kid, and when she started penning her own songs, she found songwriting therapeutic and a natural progression of her artistic expression.

"I really wanted to be an animator when I was really young and so I've always had creative outlets," she told The Luna Collective. "And because I was also a really quiet, self conscious kid, I never really thought that I could do something as great and creative as making a song in the same way that I like to paint or draw or write."
Rose's debut EP, You Never Met Me, was well-received, and she later released her debut album, One Sided, which explores themes of grief and growing up. The album features a stripped-back sound, often just Rose with a guitar or piano.
