Rose Dorn

Indie trio Rose Dorn color their languid, home-recorded folk-rock songs with doses of twang and melancholy. Two years after releasing their first songs, they made their full-length debut with 2019's Days You Were Leaving. Rose Dorn formed in Los Angeles in March 2017 when singer/guitarist Scarlet Knight needed a backing band for a D.I.Y. gig. A friend recommended multi-instrumentalists and longtime friends Jamie Coster and Joey Dalla Betta; the trio's first EP, Speak Later, emerged in that July. They followed it a year later with the three-track set Call Her. Rose Dorn then joined the Bar/None Records roster and waited for Knight to finish high school before releasing their debut album, Days You Were Leaving, in August of 2019. Like their first two EPs, it was recorded with engineer Phil Hartunian (aka Follies), who also played bass on most of the tracks.
