My name is Becky Rose, I'm 28, and I'm a songwriter based in sunny old Worcester, UK.

I write music spanning across multiple genres, my favourites being pop and alt-pop. I produce my music on GarageBand from the comfort of my box room. In the live arena (pre-lockdown, that is) I would perform with just me and my piano, though I have been known to bring out pop backing tracks during live sets from time to time.

Between 2008 and 2013 I performed around 300 gigs across the UK, including London (Troubador Club, Edinburgh Cellars, Soho Comedy Club, The Camden Head), Manchester (Jackson's Pit, Taurus), Birmingham (The Island Bar, Actress & Bishop, The Yardbird) and numerous local hot spots (Nozstock, Leamington Peace Festival, The Robin 2, The Marrs Bar).

In addition to being carted around various venues (cheers Mum and Dad!), I landed myself a bunch of radio spots. I featured on BBC Hereford & Worcester a number of times, was played by Tom Robinson on BBC 6 Music, featured on BBC Radio 1, and had airplay on a handful of underground digital radio stations.

I had a number of amazing experiences during my stint at a music career, the most notable of which I am listing here:

2009: I performed at Amnesty International Headquarters as part of the AGM for the feminist organisation OBJECT.

2010: I was spotted by Air Management (Katie Melua, Jamie Cullum) and they mentored me for the couple of years that followed.

2011: I was selected out of 37,000 applicants to join just 40 other artists at the BBC Intro Musicians Masterclass, where I met the likes of Mark Ronson, Calvin Harris, Kissy Sellout and Pete Tong.

2012: I performed a song of mine for Her Majesty The Queen on her visit to the newly opened Hive Library. This garnered a lot of local press and radio attention.

Deviating from the conventional songwriter route in 2013, I co-wrote Theatre In Education piece which included comedy musical skits. The interactive play toured 50 high schools across the UK and won the HELOA 2014 Best Innovation & Practice Award.

From this point onwards, life stuff got in the way. I made a living in a demanding events management role, married, separated, and lived with severe depression. However, this was by no means a waste of time. I indulged my interest in gender non-conformity and female sexuality, started up a Staff Mental Health Network, ran a menstrual and menopausal health workshop at my workplace, and undertook a Masters in Psychology.

Right now, I am privileged to be working full-time at Liaison (a payroll provider for the NHS), and using the spare time that I have to reignite my music career.

I am looking to develop a songwriting career, though I am totally into live performances too. Essentially, knowing that my songwriting could be seen as kind of "eclectic" (I'm a mixed bag, I know), I have an open mind as to where this could take me.
