Biography
From Surf to Shoegaze to Post-Rock to Soul, Rosing’s debut EP samples a wide array of influences through a compact 20 minute journey of lush textures and spacious arrangements. A collaboration between Los Angeles-based musicians Michael O’Neill, Olivia Dessy and Chris Moore, each track experiments with a different sonic palette. The EP swerves from the ambient crescendo in the album’s intro, “Sustain”, to the abstractly apocalyptic rhythms of “Beige Oblivion”, to Olivia’s luscious crooning on the Surf-Ballad, “Skeletons. Colorful harmonies weave through fluid arrangements of slide guitar and veils of reverb, relating themes of disenchantment, disorientation, and sundered identity. Adding to the experimental nature of the compositions, the record also features instruments custom built by O’Neill for the project.
