Description

ENDLESS VARIETY Rosalie Cunningham is considered one of the greatest musical talents in Great Britain. Classic Rock Magazine exclaims: "If Kate Bush and The Beatles had a baby, it would be Rosalie Cunningham" and Metal Hammer states: "Rosalie Cunningham is a rock star." In October, the versatile artist will come to Switzerland with her fascinating mix of rock, folk, prog, jazz, goth, and pop. Rosalie Cunningham is a musical all-rounder. At the tender age of 16, the Brit founded the psychedelic rock all-female quartet Ipso Facto in 2007, which made waves with four singles. She then worked as a backing singer and keyboardist for bands like Magazine, The Last Shadow Puppets, Cathedral, and These New Puritans. As a guitarist, she was part of Willy Moon's band and toured as a support act for Jack White. In 2011, Rosalie Cunningham founded the psychedelic band Purson, then after six exciting years, she decided to explore new paths. She wrote countless songs, which she performed under her own name from 2019. Critics quickly praised her; her self-titled debut album made it onto the year-end charts in several European countries. The "Prog" magazine even ranked her among the ten best female musicians of all time, and in a reader survey, Cunningham was voted the best singer. Over the years, her music has become more layered, and her songwriting relies not on effects but on a range of sounds and both vocal and instrumental excellence. The artist defies stylistic categorization. This is also evident in her current work "To Shoot Another Day," which offers rock between psychedelic and metal with numerous musical flirtations. Betreutesproggen.de wrote: "With all her compositional skills, making her music sound sometimes complex or lightly jazzy without truly being jazz, it is the voice of the singer/songwriter that stands out. It is versatile and shifts effortlessly from almost whispering to powerful-rough, something few singers can achieve." And Saitenkult.de asks: "Why shouldn't anyone like this rock, folk, prog, jazz, goth, and pop, this psychedelic mix of Jinx Dawson and Lana Lane? This psychedelic sound between Music Hall and Birmingham heaviness doesn't need to be categorized. Rosalie Cunningham and her collaborators simply need to be heard." With her fourth studio album, The Universe By Ear will open the next chapter of their band history in September 2026. The Basel-based heavy psych trio combines the raw power of stoner rock with progressive experimentation, psychedelic soundscapes, and expansive compositions. Powerful riffs meet spherical sounds, warm three-part choirs, and musical tension that fully unfolds live. After a live break in 2025, The Universe By Ear will return to the stage in summer 2026 with new material and lots of energy. Participants: Rosalie Cunningham
