J B RoseJ.B. Rose started her career in 1983 as a vocalist and actress. Her strong interests in working with young people, moved on to teaching drama and singing, as well as directing and producing plays for various youth groups, theatres and schools. In 199, she was commissioned to write Darker the Berry for Second Wave. Her writing soon progressed to television, with the pilot sitcom Striking Out for Chrysalis TV (95) and episodes of Brothers and Sisters (UK's first black soap drama) for the BBC. In the summer of 1997, J.B. once again took on the role of director, where It's all about Us was performed at the Brixton Shaw. As a singer-songwriter JB Rose is no stranger to the business of making music, with a history of co-writing and singing sessions with well known reputable artists such as the likes of Coolio and Omar to name a few. J.B. has co-written and released material with 'James Hardway' (Hydrogen Dukebox Records) - Swayzak (Medicine Records) - Diesel (Hiptonic Records) and 'Time' (Bugz In The Attic) to name a few. Collaborations with publishing label mate Marc Mac from 'Reinforced' (undoubtedly the unchallenged master's of Drum & Bass) resulted in with the release of her album 'Keep The Fire' under the artist name Maximum Style & JB Rose. Currently compiling her sophomore album which is a collaboration of the production and writing skills of talented newcomer Dave Brant (Precious/Tin Tin Out/N'yce & Misteeq), 4hero's producer Marc Mac on the wistfully moody 'flyaway' and Daz IQ (Bugz In The Attic) with the jazzy 'Respond React'. Other co-writers on the album include Kaidi Tatham (Herbaliser), 2B3 & Dodge (Beverley Knight/Paul Johnson) and songwriter Kenny Barry on the track "Paris". Unlike most artists who work best in the dead of the night this blond, dread locked chanteuse gets her poetic, prophetic vibes in the early hours of the morning, receiving inspiration from the 'newness of the morning' as described in the song 'Wrong Never Wins' co-written and produced by Tony Remy. With songs that spiritually uplift, lyrics to empower and engage - this project is all street, all heart and all soul. JB Rose is creating a path that allows British music to evolve naturally to another level. Read More Read Less
