Kay Rose creates melodies with a haunting quality that lingers on in your mind and lyrics that are heartfelt, poetic, and forthright.  Despite facing many hardships and tragedies in life, Rose continues to be a never ending idealist and hopeless romantic, all of which comes through in her songs.  Although often reaching emotional depths, they are often resolved with a sense of hopefulness or wisdom.

Music has been her passion for as long as she can remember.  It has been the guiding light and grounding force through a life that has been a roller coaster ride.  She moved constantly growing up, began raising a son alone very young, and many unexpected romantic twists and other losses gave her lots of initial inspiration.  "I used to think my writing would taper off as my life settled down.  But melodies and lyrics just come to me easily and I draw from other people and the world around me, in addition to my own experiences."
