Coming Up Roses Biography
Hailing from the island nation of Singapore, London-based indie/alt rock band Coming Up Roses forge a sound that is distinctively familiar - yet you can’t quite put your finger on.
Led by singer-bassist Emily Sera, the group has emerged as one of the most promising acts out of Southeast Asia owing to their dynamic live shows and heartfelt lyrical themes. Their unique blend of alt-rock and indie pop drenched with shoegaze-y textures has earned them accolades the world over, being featured as a Spotify RADAR artist in 2023 and making appearances at festivals such as Ampthill (UK), Canadian Music Week and LUCFest (Taiwan).
In addition, their firebrand performances has seen them open for UK band FUR as well as slot in alongside esteemed international acts such as Soccer Mommy and Ichiko Aoba as part of The Alex Blake Charlie Sessions in 2023. The band had their first pressing of their debut EP ‘Waters’ on vinyl sell out within 24 hours, and since their relocation to the UK have earned the praises of radio DJs including John Kennedy (Radio X) who described their music as a “classic sound”.
Their third, self-titled EP arrived in April 2024, preceded by the release of singles ‘Don’t Let It Break Your Heart’ and ‘Back The Way We Came’. The release was followed by a summer of touring in the UK as the band also played their first European shows including a gig at the iconic Supersonic in Paris. The Autumn of 2024 will see the band return for a tour in Asia with dates in Taiwan, Japan, Thailand as well as their home-city of Singapore.
Always looking forward, Coming Up Roses are currently in the studio working on music that will make up their debut album pencilled in for release in Summer 2025.

"Chiming guitars, heartstopping indie melodies" - Backseat Mafia
