Rose Gray returns with new track ‘Lotus’
Rose Gray unveils her brand-new single ‘Lotus’, the second original track to be lifted from A Little Louder, Please – the deluxe edition of her debut album Louder, Please, arriving October 24th on Polydor Records.
A hypnotic, rave-soaked trip into the club sounds that shaped her, ‘Lotus’ has been a word-of-mouth fan favourite long before its release. Rose has been dropping the track across her live sets all summer – from US dates with Kesha and Scissor Sisters to festival stages at LIDO, Mighty Hoopla and more – where it quickly became a standout moment. The crowd reaction cemented its place on the deluxe record, alongside recent lead track ‘April’.
Speaking on ‘Lotus’, Rose says: “With ‘Lotus’ I wanted to go deep, trippy, and club club. This is the dance music I love. Think Underworld 1992, Hacienda, Opus III ‘It’s a Fine Day’… I knew I had to release this part of the deluxe because of how it connects when I play it live.”
The track sits at the heart of A Little Louder, Please, which expands Rose’s euphoric debut with two brand-new cuts (‘April’ and ‘Lotus’) and a second disc of remixes, string versions and club edits. Features across the deluxe include Melanie C, JADE, Shygirl and Casey MQ, with reworks from Logic1000, Peach, Alex Chapman, Clementaum and more.
The release follows the unveiling of Rose’s Hackney Wick mini documentary, shot by HOWL (The Cube Sessions). The short film captures her roots in East London, the nightlife that shaped her and the messy, magic nights that fuelled her debut album.
Momentum behind Rose continues to soar; she recently announced her first-ever shows in Brazilthis November, and a slot at Mexico City’s Corona Capital Festival, rounding off a whirlwind summer. She’ll return to the stage in the UK and Europe this month for a headline run including two nights at London’s Village Underground – tickets available HERE, full itinerary below.Born on New Year’s Eve and raised in Walthamstow, Rose has lived her life through club music – from cloakroom shifts to dancefloor epiphanies – a spirit that infuses her art with hedonism, honesty and heart. Releasing her long-awaited debut album Louder, Please in January 2025 via Play It Again Sam – the record was introduced by a confident run of singles including the euphoric ‘Party People’, ‘Free’, ‘Angel Of Satisfaction’, ‘Switch’ and ‘Wet & Wild’. Across the album, Rose channels the chaos, catharsis and clarity of the dancefloor into a kaleidoscopic vision that fuses classic pop with rave sensibilities. Praised for its breadth of collaborators – spanning Justin Tranter (Lady Gaga, Chappell Roan) and Zhone (Troye Sivan) to underground electronic innovators Sega Bodega, Uffie and Alex Metric – Louder, Please cemented Rose as one of the UK’s most exciting new voices. Alongside the record, Rose collaborated with Ben Hemsley (‘Tidal’), Megra (‘Elixir’) and TSHA (‘Girls’), performed at Glastonbury with Shygirl, launched her own club night (Gray Selects), recorded a BBC Maida Vale session, played her first ever headline UK tour, bagged a win as MTV’s Push Artist of 2025 and supported Charli xcx at LIDO festival in London. Now newly signed to Polydor records, Rose is paving the way for yet another blockbuster year, and A Little Louder, Please is just the beginning.
