Singer-Songwriter Alessi Rose signs to Warner Chappell Music

05 December 2024 - Press release

Warner Chappell Music UK, part of the music publishing arm of Warner Music Group, has signed the exciting, up and coming singer-songwriter Alessi Rose. 

Earlier this year, Alessi released her debut six-song EP, rumination as ritual, which quickly received plaudits for her songwriting ability, as Alessi turned messy emotions into funny and painfully honest pop songs, the majority of which were entirely self-written. Through this release, along with a number of her singles, fans and critics have been captured by her genre-mashing songs that are filled with heartbreak, self-discovery and are anchored by her powerhouse voice.

Alessi Rose was drawn to music and writing from a young age, enrolling in singing lessons and entering poetry competitions as a child. She started sharing videos of her music online during the Covid lockdowns and submitted songs to BBC Introducing, which led to her ending 2022 as one of the most played artists of the year on the platform, before officially releasing any songs.

Her DIY approach also saw her utilize social media as she started taking requests, and playing covers of songs on TikTok Live every night, building up a loyal fanbase that is still with her to this day. She started throwing some of her original songs into the mix during her lives, and before long, these were the ones viewers were requesting to hear. 

Having already played sold-out headline shows in London, Alessi has had to extend her upcoming For Your Validation tour after selling 13,000 tickets across the UK and Europe in minutes. She was also recently picked to open for Noah Kahan in Belfast, playing to more than 40,000 people. 

Alessi Rose said: “I am so excited to be partnering with the Warner Chappell Music team. Writing has always been an intimate thing I do for myself to make sense of confusing thoughts and feelings, and it’s become the best way for me to understand the world around me and how I fit in it. Shani, Emily, Susie and the Warner Chappell team understand this and really get where I want to be both as a writer and an artist, which is so special. I can’t wait to see everything we are going to explore together.”

Emily Green, Senior International A&R & Catalogue Manager, Warner Chappell Music UK noted: “We are delighted to be able to collaborate with Alessi, and are so excited for everything we know she can achieve. She has such star power and an exceptionally talented songwriter. I am really excited for everything that is coming next for her.”

Susie Torrens, International A&R Manager, Warner Chappell Music UK, added: “I’m super excited to be working with Alessi and to be part of her journey. She is absolutely destined for great things. The honesty and intensity in her songwriting is so engaging and the whole team at Warner Chappell are very much looking forward to working closely with her.”
