DPS 1: Electra Rose
Electra Rose sees no limits with her eye-opening music, she focuses her music on herself and her experiences in life, and through this her fans can connect with her feeling and emotions.
 Electra takes gigs anywhere she can get to further share her talent with others. Her main gig venues are in places such as The Leadmill in the centre of Sheffield, I believe these types of intimate venues can offer the best type of atmosphere.

Electra Rose is rapidly taking the Sheffield music scene by storm! The 19 year old musician from Sheffield joined us for an exclusive interview:

How long have you been performing?
I have done music all my life and been brought up around it although I have only started professionally performing around 3 years ago. It takes a lot of courage to go up on stage and perform, especially when it’s your own music.

What instruments can you play?
I can play the guitar, I use that for a lot of my music. I can also play the piano and flute although I don’t use them that when making my music

What got you into music?
I first got into music when I went to secondary school as it had a good music program so I played a lot of different instruments from an early age. I guess what really got me into music was my family
upbringing as I have always grown up around music which got my interested to begin with.


Do you always perform original music?
Most of my music that I perform is original although I do cover some of my favourite songs. I used to only do covers when I was less confident in my own music.

What do you base your songs on?
I usually base my songs on anything in life, I like to take inspiration from things around me; I
see music as like poetry as it’s a way to self-express.


What do you base your songs on?

How long does it take you to write songs? Does it come naturally to you?
It depends on what I am going through at the time, it’s easier to write songs when I have things going on in my life, both good and bad. I feel writing songs does come naturally as I’ve been doing it all my life.

Who’s your favourite band/artist? Do they inspire you?
I love artists like Jake Bugg and Lorde as they always sing their thoughts and feelings. He definitely inspire me as I like to create meaningful music like him.

Do you hope to grow outside of Sheffield?
Of course I would like to grow as I want to share my music with everyone! Although I will never forget where I came from and where I started.
