Cara Rose

In the organizer's words:

Cara Rose is a 26-year-old singer-songwriter from Glasgow, Scotland. Cara explores what it means to be a young woman going through life in such uncertain times. Her soulful musings have won her fans of all ages as she has honed her craft on Glasgow's many stages. Her direct, passionate and insightful lyrics are unmistakably Glaswegian, covering topics such as love, life and her place in the world.

Debut single Learn to Speak, a tale of rebellion and determination, cemented the growing buzz for one of the country's most brilliant young talents. She received editorial support from Spotify and reached over 3.5 million streams, gaining fans in her native Scotland, Europe and North America. In early 2020, Cara went into the studio with renowned producer Matt Ingram (Lianne La Havas, Laura Marling) and began finalizing her debut EP Urges, which was released in October 2020 to much anticipation.

After spending the lockdown with her family in a small coastal town in the west of Scotland, Cara began writing her most expressive and introspective work to date, culminating in a new EP of delicate piano ballads that exude a talent well beyond her years. How It Feels (released in November 2021) shows the young songwriter at her most vulnerable lyrically, willingly leaning into the jazz influence that shaped much of her childhood.
In the years that followed, she released soulful and brilliant singles and played her biggest ever concert of 600 people in her hometown of Glasgow.

After playing her first headline show outside Scotland in November 2023, Cara embarked on a sold-out debut European tour in 2024, with concerts in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
Musically gifted from an early age, Cara has nurtured her love of music from the soul. Her sound is reminiscent of artists such as Amy Winehouse, Nina Simone, Lauryn Hill, Joan Armatrading and John Martyn.

Cara Rose is definitely an artist not to be missed. See for yourself when she takes to the stage at the beautiful Nochtspeicher on February 5, 2025.
