about

My new track ‘When it Rains’; a melancholic folk pop track featuring themes of death, loss and loneliness. This was recorded using just two instruments, my acoustic guitar and 80s synthesiser and a drum track. It features heavy layered vocals and harmonies and crescendos into the final chorus. As always, every aspect of this song was produced by myself; the writing, the recording and the mixing. I also made a music video for this song available on YouTube (Rosa Lavenne). I’m never entirely sure how to label the genre of my music because, despite being a musician, I’m by no means an expert on different genres so I generally just describe it as dark folk pop. If you have any other ideas as to the specific genre, I would be happy to know as promoting my music often means having to give a label (something which goes against all my instincts lol). Anyway, I hope you enjoy. 😊

lyrics

Beyond the water
The sky, the clouds and the ether
Lives a man that I once took by the hand

The sun was covered in cobwebs
Almost like God had forgotten
To light the fire and life that lives within

I dig my grave with every breath that I take
The pain of knowing that I won’t see him again
He’s just a ghost with a name
I say, when it rains

I will wait for the summer
When my earthly days are over
And I will run into Elysium

I dig my grave with every breath that I take
The pain of knowing that I won’t see him again
He’s just a ghost with a name
I say, when it rains

Oh, dark day
Oh, dark day
I dig my grave with every breath that I take
The pain of knowing that I won’t see him again
He’s just a ghost with a name
I say, when it rains

Clutching at the coattails of gothic folk, Rosa Lavenne delivers a dreamy sound with melancholic lyricism. Heavy on reverbed synths, as well as the folk traditions of fingerstyle guitar and melodic harmonies, mean that Rosa stands at the crossroads between tradition and modernism. ... more
