Beth Rowley - Violets
Beth Rowley releases her Stunning Debut EP 'Violets' on Blue Thumb/Universal
Meet Beth Rowley. Armed with a timeless voice, smouldering sound and femme-fatale look, she's one of Britain's most exciting young artists. Born to British parents in Peru and raised in Bristol, the 26 year-old singer/songwriter is a vision of modern music with the powerhouse vocals of a stellar soul songstress. A mainstay of her local live circuit, she releases the irresistible EP 'Violets' on December 3rd.
Fusing a vintage sound & sensibility with a joyous, contemporary edge, she's the result of her many influences - and much, much more. A dynamo taster of the forthcoming LP 'Little Dreamer', expected early 2008, 'Violets' hints at the wealth of talent she possesses. "For me the EP & album come from the heart. My main objective was to capture an old sound in a new, exciting way - and I think we've achieved that."
"I grew up with my dad playing guitar and old Woody Guthrie vinyls," says Beth. "That's what sparked the flame. We used to sit round and sing the blues, so it all went from there - funny how it's always little things that make big things happen."
