Chelle Rose

NEW YORK TIMES "As a songwriter, Ms. Rose works in the realm of Lucinda Williams, Townes Van Zandt, Steve Earle, Alejandro Escovedo and other terse, unflinching songwriters on the rock fringe of country. She sings about hard-nosed characters — herself, perhaps, among them" 

USA TODAY "Rose revives a great Julie Miller rocker on her swampy Ray Wylie Hubbard-produced Ghost of Browder Holler.

OXFORD AMERICAN "If you were playing it on a turntable, you'd keep moving the tone-arm back to play certain tracks over again." —WILLIAM GAY 

BLOGCRITICS "Who can Chelle Rose be compared to? I suppose one could come up with a list of influences and peers, but any such list would be misleading. Perhaps a jigger of Marianne Faithful, a shot of Townes Van Zandt, and a pinch from Dylan's Time Out Of Mind period. But mostly we're looking at a new, original recipe available in only one kitchen."
