Aphrose [2023] - Roses [LRK Records]

The new single from Toronto's Aphrose (Joanna Mohammed) is "Roses" is out today (25 Aug). It follows "Ya Ya" (7 Jul) and "Good Love" (19 May) and is the title track of her sophomore album due on LRK Records later this year.

The song was written by Aphrose with her long time musical collaborator, Scott McCannell (SafeSpaceShip) and guitarist Heather Crawford). It is dedicated to her grandmother, Rose, who has influenced her most and from whom she takes her artist name. It pays homage to her grandmother's remarkable resilience and strength escaping an abusive relationship and emigrating with her children from Trinidad and Tobago to Canada and raising them as a single parent.

It's a delicate, poignant, heartfelt, ethereal and emotional ballad which Aphrose states:

"holds immense significance in my heart, serving as a poignant tribute and a heartfelt love letter to my beloved late grandmother, Rose. A beacon of unyielding strength, she has been my guiding light since childhood, alongside my mother and aunts, who collectively serve as my source of inspiration."
