New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Ariana and the Rose has solidified herself as both an underground Brooklyn nightlife staple and a must-see mainstay on the NYC pop scene, and now she is linking up with Torres for an 18-date run of shows that will bring the "walking piece of art" (Ladygunn) to LA, Chicago, Houston, New Orleans and more, starting in Seattle on March 31.
She will bring to life cult-level fan-favorites like the biting "You Were Never My Boyfriend", the ethereal heartbreaker "
Love You Lately", the LOGO-approvedpride anthem "
True Love", and her unanimously praised disco bop "Night Owl" (received love from Time, Nylon, Consequence of Sound and more), while also teasing what's next to come following last year's 'Constellations' (Phase I) EP.
Combining "vibrant, club-ready" (Consequence of Sound) pop with intimate, smart and pointed lyrics,
Ariana and the Rose can effectively coexist on bass-heavy dancefloors as well as perched solo at the piano -- as Earmilk said, "she's honest and can be stripped bare one moment, but isn't afraid to go big, to experiment, and feel glam in the other."
As a live performer,
Ariana has become one of Brooklyn's hometown pop must-sees, bringing her "sincere, sonically enveloping synth-pop" (Billboard) to venues across the city including the stage at the 2019 Bushwig, and elsewhere including the 2019 Vans Warped Tour.
Ariana and the Rose has also proven her artistic prowess by curating an intergalactic immersive art party in Brooklyn (with one-offs in LA, UK, and Manhattan) called "light + space" which bridges together elements of a high-octane pop show, interactive theater, the club kid scene of the late 80s/early 90s, and sci-fi cinema.
