Music will always be there for us—especially when we don’t have the words to express what we want to say. Georgia-born and Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Sydney Rose writes songs for those moments. As she sings, it almost sounds like she’s whispering in your ear, giving you a boost of confidence, offering a little clarity, or just reminding you everything will be okay. Growing up in the suburbs of Atlanta, she picked up ukulele, piano, and guitar. Building an audience organically on social media, she broke through with a viral take on “Turning Page” by Sleeping At Last. It gathered over 67 million Spotify streams, led to her first label deal at 18-years-old, and set the stage for 2022’s You Never Met Me EP. A year later, she unveiled her debut LP, One Sided, highlighted by “You’d Be Stars” [feat. Chloe Moriondo]. She received co-signs courtesy of everyone from Olivia Rodrigo and Addison Grace who invited her on tour. In the Fall of 2024, Sydney found herself unexpectedly released by her label. Now settled in Nashville, she reflected inwardly and returned all her focus to honing her music. She independently dropped the fan favorite voice notes EP. While sitting at the piano one day, she crafted “We Hug Now.” It exploded on TikTok and inspired over 1 million “creates,” yielding 6.5 billion total views and reaching the Top 15 of the TikTok Top Songs Chart. “We Hug Now” catapulted to the Top 3 of the Spotify US and Global Viral 50 Charts. Amassing 190 million streams and counting, she entered and quickly hit Top 20 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists Chart and hit Top 10 on Billboard’s Hot Alternative Songs Charts. Now, Sydney continues to captivate with her I Know What I Want EP, which marks her first release under her new label home, Mercury Records. In support of the EP, Sydney performed at BST Hyde Park alongside Noah Kahan, Gracie Abrams, FINNEAS, and more, and capped off 2025 with a sold-out headline tour across the US and Europe.
