Lucy Rose returns with first single in four years, "Could You Help Me"

“After having my son Otis, I started to suffer from severe backpain that made living my day-to-day life almost impossible. I sought medical help but was dismissed repeatedly. I put those emotions and exasperation into "Could You Help Me". Although my back prevented me from being able to pick up a guitar, I was able to sit at the piano and play for a few minutes at a time. With Otis patiently listening, I think the music really helped lift me," Rose explains. "I’d been listening to a lot of different music; Errol Garner, Duke Ellington, Kiefer, Debussy, Little Simz, and finding myself drawn so much more to writing at a piano.”

Lucy Rose also announces details of a one-off, intimate show at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in Soho on 9 January 2024. It will be her first return to the capital since a sold-out Barbican show back in December 2019.
