Rozi Plain: International Showcase Fund (SXSW)

Rozi Plain

Rozi Plain has been making music since her brother taught her a few chords on the guitar aged 13. Raised in Winchester, she spent a few years studying art and painting boats in Bristol, where she began working with long-term collaborators Kate Stables (This Is The Kit) and Rachael Dadd among many others on a thriving local scene. It was there that she made her first two albums, 2008’s ‘Inside Over Here’ and 2012’s ‘Joined Sometimes Unjoined’, each works of deliciously sad and beautiful pop full of heart-wrenching harmonies dotted with unexpected instrumental flourishes.

Rozi released her exquisite third album ‘Friend’ on Lost Map Records in May 2015. A spellbinding reaffirmation of the now London-based singer-songwriter as one of the most unique and original voices in UK alt-folk, ‘Friend’ features contributions from Hot Chip‘s Alexis Taylor and members of Francois & The Atlas Mountains among many others. Rozi recently moved to London, but she doesn’t see her flat all that often because she tours a great deal year round. She has taken her joyous live show on the road around Europe, the UK and the USA, in partnership with alt-folk luminaries from Devendra Banhart to KT Tunstall. She has appeared at festivals including Glastonbury, Latitude, End of the Road, Green Man and Iceland Airways.

Rozi is looking forward to playing at SXSW 2016 and is grateful to PRS for Music Foundation for their continuing support – without the funding she wouldn’t be able to go to perform in Austin.
