Crystal Rose bio:
Crystal is an artist that is quietly defining the millennial artist experience. She is making moves in a way that speaks volumes about our creative climate. To call her a self-starter is an understatement. She makes the jump easily between social media, to staking her claim in the live and local scene, makes regular television appearances and consistently uses her platform for her own brand as well her passionate stance on social justice. Crystal takes the seeds from her already fruitful career and continues to reinvest in her craft. With every step up, she continues to forge forward, competing only with herself. Crystal is an artist that makes music not only for her audience but for the sake of her own survival. From appearing on the 16th season of “The Voice” on NBC, independently releasing her single “Not Leaving” in January of this year, to being featured on NPR as a part of their Tiny Desk Contest Top Shelf for her original song “House of God (Golden Child)”. Her music is deeply personal, bold and straightforward. Her ability to convey life’s mysteries and triumphs through each song symbolizes her wisdom and openness. Her ability to convey and commune is a gift. After appearing on stage with the likes of Trombone Shorty, Hollyn, and Alice Merton, she decided to take the reins of her career and move independently, trying her hand at producing, solely self-taught. Arena, her latest offering is all about what it takes to make it while being whole and human at the same time.
