The stunning debut EP from Rose and the Diamond Hand finally receives world wide digital distribution on Friday 10th February 2017. This is perhaps timely in the light in the recent impact of the Women’s Marches and future plans to combat misogynistic rumblings from Le Casa Blanca.
Originally released in Autumn 2016 the four track collection brings together the incandescent vocal style of Rose Niland in a trip-hop/dub soundscape, which is gaining increased interest. Rose’s stunning vocals are well known across the Manchester music scene, it’s time for her to gain wider recognition and her talents to be shared with a much bigger audience.
Live Rose and the Diamond Hand create atmospheric, downtempo songs with a gothic tinge. Intense bass, subdued electronica and primal beats provide a frayed canvas for Rose Niland’s expressive vocals, earning the band comparisons to Portishead, Siouxsie and the Banshees and Cocteau Tiwns.
The EP will be available on I-Tunes, Amazon, Google Play, Spotify and many more digital outlets. A video to accompany the release will be coming soon.
