Rose Gerber is an intrepid American roots explorer, incorporating country, folk, rock, alt-rock, and alt-country into a seamless signature aesthetic. As a writer, she’s both sensitive and sassy, equally gifted penning Heartland Rock n Roll and heartbreaking balladry. Her songs are snapshots of everyday living that show the meaning in the seemingly mundane, and they also function as courageous self-talk.
Check out the vocally mesmerizing new alt-country gem, “Back to Living” from Rose Gerber. With classic feel and a slightly familiar breath of release, Gerber makes the archetypal feel here with perfection in phrasing and release of air. The song is built big on tight drum push and fastidious guitar detailings. “Back to Living” showcases a vocal powerhouse, armed with a tangible knack for choice lyrical nuggets. A must listen for anyone who calls themself a fan of Americana music.
“Some of the songs I’ve written create a place for me to have a dialogue with someone that I am estranged from. Back to Living is one of those for me. It’s a melting pot of all the feelings I have felt, all the things I haven’t been able to say, and all the empathy I feel for my sibling who has had a hard path through life, leaving us little room to connect,” says Gerber.
