I had the pleasure of catching Haroula Rose's set at Schubas this past Saturday. Although the set was brief, as she was the first act of four to play that night, it was clear she was excited to be back home in Chicago. Rose is currently based in LA but grew up in Chicago and had several family members in the crowd including a young nephew. With that and the Christmas lights surrounding the small Schubas stage, it felt like I had arrived at the family Christmas dinner and our talented cousin from LA was playing a few [...]
Filed under: Video of the Day Artist : Haroula Rose Video: "So Easy" Highlight: The feel-good shots in the video -- including Haroula Rose effortlessly jumping backward onto a tree branch -- echo the song's happy-go-lucky attitude about falling in love. Watch Haroula Rose's "So Easy" Video
The friend zone. It appears in middle school and it never goes away. Everyone’s been there and no one likes it. Haroula Rose captures that sense of childish (but still incredible) frustration of the situation with the appropriately titled “Only Friends,” off the So Easy EP. If you’re trying to escape that infamous romantic purgatory, [...]

Last year, Chicago singer/songwriter Haroula Rose released debut album These Open Roads, and now she's back with follow-up EP So Easy. Altogether, it's more upbeat and arranged than These Open Roads; she says she found inspiration from her eagerness of the coming spring and summer. Download So Easy's title track below.

Jimmy Webb's classic "Wichita Lineman" gets an understated but effective makeover from L.A. singer/songwriter Haroula Rose and her new EP So Easy , arriving tomorrow. As we noted in our overview for her self-titled 2011 debut , "Rose's voice, a near-whisper of plaintive resignation and sensuality, has the peculiar effect of drawing you closer even though the invitation is so subtle that it's almost too easy to miss. And that would be a shame." And you have to love that reverb-rich guitar solo. Rose is currently wrapping up her [...]
Haroula Rose 's latest record "These Open Roads" offers many of the songstress' graceful ballads and soothing folk, but she's been writing with brighter color and faster tempos on her way to her forthcoming album, which is set for a release later this year. Her follow-up "So Easy" (out June 4) foreshadows a sunny retro-pop sound, and her video for the EP's title track pays tribute to one of the biggest pop-rock acts of all-time: the Beatles. Directed by Michael R. Miller, the clip replicates fun scenes from several videos by the Fab Four. Can you guess which ones? [...]
With a highly personal sound that's both intimate and alluring, Haroula Rose sits down with PopMatters to talk about her psychic abilities, her terrifying first performance, and all her dinner guests whose name starts with "J". Folkies and I don't usually get along. If it's a guy, I usually want to shake them, pull on their scraggly beard, and tell them to lighten up. If the artist is female, and cute, I'll generally pay a bit closer attention, focusing more on how great it would be to date a musician and have her mention me in the [...]
Filed under: News , New Music , New Releases Javiera Estrada Haroula Rose 's new track "So Easy" strikes an interesting balance between sunny pop and a tradition of darker rock 'n' roll in the Elliott Smith vein. Utilizing unexpected chord changes, plinking piano lines, hot Beatles -esque guitar licks and smart orchestral arrangements, Haroula and co. have created a true gem. "I co-wrote the song 'So Easy' with Jonny [...]

She is preparing for the release of a new EP called "So Easy" later this Spring and she is working on her second LP. The Hood Internet also recently dropped a great remix of her track "Lavender Moon" from her 2011 debut These Open Roads .

Sneak Attack Media At SXSW It's that time of the year again when the music world shuts up shop and heads for the sunnier climes of Austin Texas for SXSW. Another year when I'm forced to follow events via twitter from the comfort of my living room in Liverpool. At least my inbox gets a little respite! For those of you lucky enough to be in Austin over the next few [...]

This week saw the departure of a legend from Indy with a heartfelt press conference from an erratic boss in Jim Irsay and quarterback legend, Peyton Manning. The race to pick up the legend has me hoping he still has fuel in the tank for at least three to four years, and that's being overly optimistic. Of the three teams in the running for the legend's services, my beloved Donkey's are pushing hard for the free agent offering anything and everything. Shall this come to fruition, Tebow's departure is all but imminent, rendering the lefty's services [...]

If I had to come up with a musical combination guaranteed to make me swoon, it would include indie-folk music, an acoustic guitar, and a leading lady with a voice as intimate as her lyrics. Fortunately for me and everyone else with a pair of ears, there’s Chicago-born songstress Haroula Rose.
