Rose Cousins

On her forthcoming record, Rose Cousins holds our hands as she guides us on a journey
through the “conditions of love”. Ever the emotional explorer, the acclaimed, Nova-Scotia-based
folk artist seeks truth, in all its imperfection, in the depths of our most complicated of emotions:
love.

Co-produced with trusted friend and longtime bandmate Joshua Van Tassel, this new collection
of songs sees Rose return to her first love, the piano. “Piano is where I feel the most connected.
It’s the best partner in expressing the emotion I’m mining,” she shares.

Rose’s work as garnered her two JUNO Awards (2013’s We Have Made a Spark;
2021’s Bravado), two Canadian Folk Music Awards, eleven East Coast Music Awards and one
Grammy nomination (2018’s Natural Conclusion), along with praise from the likes of the
CBC, No Depression, LA Times, Billboard, Folk Alley, and NPR, who raved “Cousins’
disarmingly fluid vocal tone has the ability to convey the most internalized feelings without an
ounce of fuss.” Over the years, she has shared stages with Patty Griffin, Mary Chapin
Carpenter, Jann Arden, Bruce Cockburn, Josh Ritter, Kathleen Edwards, Joe Henry, Aoife
O’Donovan and Anais Mitchell, and her music has fittingly underscored scenes from notable TV
shows including Grey’s Anatomy, Fire Country, Station 19 and Batwoman along with several
independent films.
