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."
