Scotland’s breakout singer-songwriter Rosie H Sullivan drops quirky new single “Chapters” – and its accompanying video (watch it below) – via Nettwerk.
Closely following her debut EP “123° East” out earlier this year, Rosie enters a new era with “Chapters” after following last month’s tender return, the track “Fragments” – both lifted from Sullivan’s subsequent new EP due this autumn.
“Chapters” is an ode to fulfilling each day, celebrating the ups and downs in our lives as well the simple things we shouldn’t take for granted. Sullivan urges listeners “to open their eyes and lungs, breath in the air of the life you’re given and taking it all in your stride.”
“I wrote Chapters when I was 17,” says Sullivan, revealing her uncertainty on unearthing the track now. “It’s been sitting gathering dust, but I put my trust in those who believed in the song and me. A new stage of life, a new chapter, how terrifying, but how lucky and how thrilling to have that. The middle-8 that was born whilst recording it in the studio which Ross Hamilton helped me write. We brought the song alive, and I could have cried when I heard it all as one. Who knew.”
The promising young musician based in Edinburgh, has been creating music since her early teenage years and is a natural-born storyteller. Now in her 20s, she has a similar ethereal musical style to the likes of Phoebe Bridgers, Laura Marling and Elliott Smith.
Sullivan’s breakthrough came in 2021 with her debut single, “So It Is”, which she captured in just one take in her parent’s garden. Released in demo form, the single has racked up onwards of 600,000 streams on Spotify. In addition, her recent sold-out stint at Glasgow’s King Tut’s, appearance at this year’s Celtic Connections plus her own Scottish tour has won het may new admirers.
