Rosettes

Rosettes are a Helsinki-based eight-piece band born from diverse musical backgrounds and a shared passion for soulful sounds. Described by some as ”Khruangbin of the north”, they draw inspiration from a myriad of genres, including soul, city pop, R&B old and new, jazz, and rap. With a strong DIY ethos and close to no formal musical education they effortlessly blend their influences into an evolving tornado of sounds and rhythms. Influenced by artists like Curtis Mayfield, Tony Allen, Sade, Cleo Sol, and SAULT, they infuse their music with rare groove elements and an acute jazz sensibility.

Founded in 2020, Rosettes quickly made waves with their energizing sound. Being a distinctly audiovisual experience, their journey began with the release of the "Moon River" live music video in 2021, followed by the psychedelia gem "My Favourite Colour” in 2022, also a video single. In May 2023, Finnish DIY powerhouse label Ultraääni Records unveiled the group’s debut 7" vinyl release, "Meaning of Music” b/w ”Memories”, which they now follow up with their first single on Timmion Records ”Souvenir” b/w ”Green Ray”.
