bio
“Milwaukee-born singer Jonny Rose began his music career as a classical pianist and Ivy League-trained composer before crossing over into the electronic dance world with the release of his first single “Where Is Love (Love Is Hard to Find)” on Ultra Records in 2011. He found immediate success as a vocalist collaborating with a variety of influential DJs like Laidback Luke, Vicetone, Dash Berlin, Guru Josh, and others. Many of his tracks have charted internationally and he has become a regular performer on the electronic festival circuit. Genre hopping around the dance community, he has worked within the progressive, trance, dubstep, and chillout scenes, just to name a few. While managing his demand as a singer and collaborator, Rose has also found time to work as a songwriter and producer in the hip-hop and pop worlds.”
–Timothy Monger, AllMusic.com
