Burgeoning singer-songwriter, producer and musician, Blake Rose has released his brand-new EP, Suddenly Okay via AWAL Recordings. Written and co-produced entirely by Blake Rose, the four-track collection is the first of three installments to be unveiled this year. Offering listeners a tantalizing and refreshing glimpse of what’s to come from one of Australia’s most exciting musical exports in 2024. Alongside the EP release, Blake has shared the official music video for focus track, “Never Let Go,” directed by John Chew for AWAL.
Speaking about his new EP, Blake Rose reveals, “‘Suddenly Okay’ is the first of 3 projects I’ll be releasing this year, narrating my experiences with love. This EP is about manifesting a future where you are healed from the pains of heartbreak. Last year was a very challenging year for me mentally, so I wanted this EP to be a beacon of transformation into a new chapter.”
On the title track, he explains, “Suddenly Okay talks through the depressive state that often follows a breakup. It’s very easy to slip into a dark hole and wallow in it forever but, no matter how many people try to help, sometimes the only thing that can pull you out of that hole is if you saw that person again.”
Next month, Blake Rose will embark on The Suddenly Okay Tour, kicking off on April 5 in San Francisco. His biggest headline tour to date, Blake will make stops in Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago, Toronto, Washington, DC, Philadelphia, New York, Atlanta, Nashville, Dallas, Phoenix, Los Angeles and more, before concluding on May 8 in San Diego. Joining Blake on the road will be American singer-songwriter, Max McNown.
