San Francisco's Lia Rose writes songs that are poetic, intensely honest, and at times unmistakably autobiographical. Her voice has been called “captivating and beautiful” by Tape Op Magazine. Driven by a fierce optimism and a hope that this world can be a better place for everyone, Rose creates music and tours with projects focused on making a positive impact. In 2015 Lia Rose relaunched Built for the Sea, signing with Tom Morello's new label: Firebrand Records whose tag line is "We know that music alone does not change the world, but we recognize that it is an integral part of the movements that do." Built for the Sea released a new EP in 2015 on Firebrand Records and they have been playing shows again for the first time since 2009.​ More About Lia Rose: "Lia Rose is a vet of Bay Area indie music, known mostly for her work in bands like Built for the Sea, Minipop, and Or, The Whale. She's also had a solid solo career since 2011, making music both on her own and in collaboration with other Bay Area folk and acoustic artists..." [-- The Bay Bridged] "She sat atop a stool barefoot, living behind her bangs, singing from her heart, and the audience loved it ... her voice seemed to linger around the room with a dream-like quality, probably because she sounded a bit unreal. If you want something a little different with a lot of substance, check out one of her gigs." -- The Owl Mag @KFOG Showcase Management: Suzanne Koga Contact: suzannek@liarose.com Driven by a fierce optimism and a hope that this world can be a better place for everyone, Rose focuses on projects committed to making a positive impact.
