Rosie (musician)
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Rosaileen Scher, commonly known by her stage name ROSIE, is an American singer-songwriter. Her music, which often reflects on her personal mental struggles,[1] is noted for its straightforward presentation, devoid of extensive editing or reliance on current trends.[2]
Scher was born in 2000 in Nyack, New York.[1] Her early interest in music was supported by her parents, who encouraged her to pursue songwriting during her teenage years. She attended Berklee College of Music but dropped out in 2020 to focus on her music career.[2]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Scher posted cover songs and performed live on Instagram; she also experimented with TikTok early in the pandemic but initially found limited success. Her career experienced a turning point in mid-2020 when her pop break-up song "Never the 1" went viral on TikTok, leading to a contract with Arista Records in the same year.[2][3]
The following year, she released a seven-song EP entitled "20mg of Happiness".[2] In 2023, she released an EP titled "5 Songs for Healing."[1] She also co-wrote the song "Love Again" for Celine Dion, which was subsequently used in the 2023 film Love Again.[4] The song was "so compelling" that it prompted a change in the film's title.[1]
