There are voices that simply exist in a category of their own, and Baby Rose is one of them. 'Let Me Go' is the latest proof - a breathtaking new single from her forthcoming album YEARNALISM that feels like an exhale after holding your breath for too long.

Built around the quiet courage it takes to release something you love, the track is deeply human. Musically it moves with an easy, unhurried rhythm - addictively catchy and sonically warm, the kind of melody that settles into you without trying. And then there's her voice. Effortlessly channelling soul and gospel with a timeless, lived-in quality, it is simply one of the most gorgeous instruments in contemporary music - the kind of voice that makes everything else fall quiet.

"Not all things have to end with a crash and burn. 'Let Me Go' is about yearning to be free and still friends at the end of it all... it's not you, it's me." says Rose. That spirit runs through every note as the lyrics carry a quiet self-awareness of someone choosing themselves with open hands. The visual is equally arresting; Baby Rose appears in vivid colour in a red dress, with matching umbrella and telephone, before the colour drains entirely into black and white. It feels intentional and poetic, colour as emotion, as attachment, and its absence as release. The art of letting go, rendered beautifully on screen.
