CAROLINE ROSE
QUEER & THE BEAT
Wednesday, 5 April 2023 - 14 minutes
Paris caught up with Caroline Rose after the sucess of their single "Miami".
Caroline Rose is an artist known for their wit and satirical storytelling, but for the first time, with 'The Art of Forgetting', Roseʼs music teems with raw, intense emotion. With no guard up, they present the type of confessional honesty we've only previously caught glimpses of, in their work. Of course, Roseʼs impish humour does pop up unexpectedly amidst themes of regret and grief, loss and change, shame and the inevitability of pain.
After a series of heartbreaking events, Rose had no desire to make a statement, let alone make a new album. It was a time of contemplation and transformation. What transpired was what Rose considers a gradual union of reconnection and growth. Prompted by a difficult breakup, Rose began a deep-dive inward, unknowingly digging up long-buried childhood experiences. All the while, Rose was getting voicemails from their grandmother “who was clearly losing her mind.” These respective moments are pieced throughout the album, offering moments of lightness amidst an otherwise heart-rending story of a person who has forgotten, and is perhaps re-learning, how to love themselves. “It got me thinking about all the different ways memory shows up throughout our lives,” says Rose.
