Frankie Rose will be heading out on a US tour later this month, playing at Brillobox in Pittsburgh on January 26.
Rose had an impressive year in 2013, releasing her Fat Possum debut album, Herein Wild, which garnered praise from outlets ranging from The New York Times, Village Voise, Billboard, SPIN, BULLETT, T Magazine and more. After a full North American tour with Franz Ferdinand, Rose is now preparing for another run of dates with White Lies. Rose’s live show is incredibly high energy and entertaining.

Rose’s critically acclaimed Fat Possum debut, titled Herein Wild, came out last month and received accolades from publications including The New York Times, Billboard, Spin, The Village Voice and Interview Magazine for a sound that Stereogum notes, “establishes [Frankie] as a true force to be reckoned with.”
