Maggie Rose
Maggie Rose is a Nashville-based songwriter and powerhouse country, blues, R&B, and rock singer. In 2013, after issuing an EP under her birthname, Margaret Durante, two years prior, she adopted the Maggie Rose moniker and released her Billboard-charting debut album, Cut to Impress. She began transitioning away from her country roots on 2018's more rock-oriented Change the Whole Thing, 2021's Have a Seat, and 2024's soul-, pop-, folk-, R&B-forward No One Gets Out Alive.
Cut from the same cloth as fiery crooners Jana Kramer, Miranda Lambert, and Carrie Underwood, singer Maggie Rose was born Margaret Rose Durante in 1988 in Potomac, Maryland. She took to the stage at the age of 16, performing frequently with the B Street Band, a Bruce Springsteen cover group, before heading off to Clemson University. She left school in her sophomore year to focus on music, eventually relocating to Nashville, Tennessee on the advice of industry icon Tommy Mottola. Mottola helped her ink a deal with Universal Republic, which released her debut single, a 2009 cover of Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody." She left the label the following year and signed with Emrose Records, releasing a pair of singles and an EP under her birth name before assuming the moniker Maggie Rose for the 2012 single "I Ain't Your Mama." A debut full-length, Cut to Impress, produced by Blake Chancey, Stephony Smith, and James Stroud, appeared from RPM Records in 2013. The following year, she received an Emmy Award for "Get Ya Game On," a track she wrote for Comcast SportsNet's coverage of the Baltimore Ravens and a handful of other football teams.
Although she'd become identified with country music, Rose refused to box herself in and branched out into productions and collaborations with a wide range of other artists. She launched an ambitious new project in mid-2015, debuting a new original song in whatever style she pleased every Tuesday from her website. The project was a success with fans, revitalizing her career and resulting in the release of the 2016 double EP The Variety Show, Vol. 1. Rose issued the single "Body on Fire" in early 2017 in anticipation of the release of her Dreams > Dollars EP, which arrived in May of that year. 2018 saw the arrival of her acclaimed sophomore long-player, Change the Whole Thing. Recorded live in the studio with no overdubs, the powerful set added elements of soul, roots, blues, trad country, and gospel to her already robust country-pop sound.
Rose headed to the legendary FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama with producer Ben Tanner of Alabama Shakes to record her third full-length effort, 2021's Have a Seat. Tanner was also on board for 2024's No One Gets Out Alive, which found Rose mixing her country-and-soul style with a '70s Laurel Canyon folk vibe. It featured songwriting and musical contributions by Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit guitarist Sadler Vaden, Natalie Hemby, and Sunny Sweeney, among others.
