Local sweetheart Martha Rose returns with her Casio pop English folk fusion to her favourite Brighton tavern, accompanied by Berlin bandmate Dandy Deniz. Martha Rose is a Berlin-based musician, born in Camberwell, UK. She released her second full-length album, »Undress & Dive After«, on 4 September 2020 on Treibender Teppich Records (Stuttgart) and Martin Hossbach (Berlin).
»Undress & Dive After« has been described as an invitation to dive deep into Martha Rose’s poetic and emotional world, with all its sources of inspiration – a warm wash of Casio sounds and visual cues embedded in mystical lyricism. Cotton and water, it is a sonic vision of a medieval forest, and an 1980s village-hall disco that also references Japanese funk.
Some quotes about Martha:
Uncut Magazine (UK): ‘coolly heartbroken vocals in softly plucked guitar and luminous sinews of analogue synth’
‘tremulous emotionalism and naked intensity that recalls vintage Cat Power’
Narc Magazine (UK): ‘the grooviest medieval folk out there’
‘rewarding, addictive, and unbelievably refreshing.’
