‘Vegan’, the debut Rosie Stuart single on our in-house label LABELMAN, is out now! It’s the first of two singles leading up to her forthcoming EP, so stay tuned for more soon. With TOUTPARTOUT, we have already been Rosie Stuart’s EU/UK agent for some time. Now, we’re happy to also take her under our wings at LABELMAN!
On ‘Vegan’, singer-songwriter Rosie reveals her most vulnerable side, though an impenetrable wall shields her deepest longings. She carries an intense energy, is uncomfortably honest, and constantly balances between bravado and self-sabotage. If this doesn’t move you…you must be vegan.
More exciting news – Rosie has recently been selected for the preliminary rounds of Sound Track, a Belgian music competition organized by VI.BE. On October 11th, Rosie and her great band will perform at De Casino in Sint-Niklaas, contending for a place in the finals.
