Hi! I’m Annaliesa Rose and welcome to my website.
I’m so grateful to have the privilege to be working with all the fabulous musicians I get to work with including David Patrick and musicians in Edinburgh’s jazz n jive club on two occasions, Daryl Wallis on my jazzy cabaret project Annaliesa Rose Sings the Peter Allen Songbook, Emil Viklicky, Daniel Bulatkin, Matt Lustri and Sam Mudie on guitar, John Burgess and Guy Vaughan-Smith on bass (depending on location), Trevor Kettlewell on drums, and fabulous woodwind and brass players including ARIA award winner Miroslav Bukovsky (trumpet and flugelhorn and collaborating together in compositions) and Andrew Robertson (saxophones and flute) and two fabulous big bands, “In Full Swing” and “ConneXion” as well as many other musicians and projects.
My debut album (which you can also find on this website, Bandcamp and all streaming sites) feat. these brilliant musicians Miroslav Bukovsky as performer and composer, Michael Bartolomei, Phil Stack and Tim Firth. It was a lot of work that paid off and I’m proud to be able to share this project with you all and thank you so much for all who have had the opportunity to help with this work and also who enjoy this album.
Come along to my jazz gigs coming up in Canberra, Wollongong and Sydney and elsewhere and regarding further touring and recording and other projects… Watch this space!
For all of these opportunities in the past, present and future, I am so very grateful. Thank you to all who inspire me to be able to live my life doing what I love.
For now, I send you lots of love and hugs. May all of your dreams manifest and you live your life with passion, love and gratitude. 🌹🎵🎶🎵🎶
