We chat with singer, poet, and musician Stella Rose about releasing her own music, getting advice from her dad, Depeche Mode singer Dave Gahan, and working towards her debut album. Living in New York, Stella Rose is no stranger to her predecessors. She toys with the language of folkloric ballads, conducting narrations of her most inner reveries through life experiences and observation. Hanging around even after the coffee has gone cold, she is a collector. Stella Rose met Producer Yves Rothman in November of 2020 in Los Angeles. After listening to her low-fi voice note poetry, Yves and Stella Rose spend 2 weeks together in the studio. During a time when things felt uncertain, the stars seemed to align. Stella Rose’s debut track “Muddled Man“ is like a Videodrome, a murder of your most precious possession. Her band, Stella Rose and the Dead Language, have been found playing packed-out clubs all around downtown New York and Brooklyn, opening up for bands Pretty Sick and Girlpool. Stella Rose will be featured in the October Issue of Buffalo Zine, photographed by Richard Kern, and in an editorial for Flaunt Magazine later this year.
