About Candy Rose
Candy Rose is an unsigned, independent Singer/Songwriter from London, U.K. She writes/co-writes all her material and has many influences, from the Late Great Michael Jackson to Madonna to Nirvana to Alicia Keys and Fall Out Boy to name a few. She is an avid fan of Patrick Stump - so much so, she wrote a song about him - and has been tipped as one of the U.K Artists to watch and keep listening to. She is not restricted in her genre or style of music and her works feature something for all.
When the voice of Candy Rose was heard over the airwaves for the first time following the release of her debut single, So You Know in 2009, little was known about her as no public photos had been taken of her at the time, and interviews had only taken place over the radio.
Despite the mystique surrounding her, her debut album A Rollercoaster Love created a huge buzz resulting in radio exposure worldwide and rave reviews.
Candy Rose has since revealed her face to the public, had a string of successful gigs in and around London, won various national and international awards, had her songs played in major retail branches and clubs, performed at the Miami Music Festival, becoming a proud Olympics Ambassador for her home city London, having her music used in various movies – most recently Magic Mike XXL; DVDs, TV shows – BBC Click and ad projects, as well as had a photo shoot with Andy Fallon who has worked with the likes of The Killers and Morrissey to name but a few.
Her works have been featured in over 40 compilations, which have all been in the top 10 around the world. She has just released The Best featuring Ian-Massa Harris and is also currently working on something new - which many hope will be the long-awaited second album, from the lady fondly dubbed "The Queen of Hooks".
All music by Candy Rose is available from iTunes, Amazon, CD baby, all digital platforms. CDs are rarely printed so they have become collector’s items and can only be found on very limited sites such as Amazon, CD baby, and select few retailers

"Candy Rose's music is like candy, keeps me coming back for more! Her song 'You are everything' is so sugary sweet and delicious, it's a song I never get tired of listening to!

Candy Rose is paving her own path independently and is featured in over 40 music compilations. Inspired by artists such as Michael Jackson and Andrea Bocelli, Candy Rose also draws influences from contemporary artists such as Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Beyoncé, and Pink. Candy is also an avid supporter of LGBT rights—the new single, ‘The Best’ features the emotive opera singer and executive producer of Pride in London, Ian Massa-Harris.
About ‘The Best', here’s what Candy Rose has to say:
“This was a very personal song to write. I wrote this song when I decided to get divorced years ago. It was a hard decision for me and my family and my then 7-year old daughter, actually played/created the cello piece you hear on the track.
If you've ever dated someone who was depressed or sad, you love them but you can't reach them even when they are right in front of you, this song will resonate with you.
And of course, it would not be a Candy Rose release if I don't cater for my club vets and fitness people... I'm a big girl but I do lift!”
‘The Best’ is now available to buy and stream on iTunes, Amazon, Google Play, and Spotify. The full four-track single contains a RnB version, club remix, G.A.Y. remix and the original version featuring operatic vocals from Ian Massa-Harris.
