Rosali - "On Tonight"

The new single from Rosali is sure to become an instant favorite the first time you hear it, and it's only going to grow on you from there. "On Tonight" has this great indie rock meets pop and roots sound. I know that's kind of one of the big sounds the past few years, but Rosali is combining those genres unlike anyone you've heard before. "On Tonight" has a kind of Liz Phair meets The Pretenders sound to it. More importantly, it's guaranteed to suck you in completely within the first few seconds. Rosali is one of those artists I was pretty sure I was going to like, but after hearing "On Tonight," I'm certain I'm going to adore her.

Rosali says of her latest single:

“Being ‘on' is something akin to being in a flow state, where you’re zinging with divine inspiration, full of fire, and open to possibilities. I kind of wrote the song from the P.O.V. of Eve seducing the snake and the narrative began to unfold as a lust for life: looking to know more and that in experiencing things, good and bad, that that knowledge will open your eyes revealing deeper understandings and meanings. So that your future can be lived in a bigger, more complete way through your own choices.”
