Rose Gray will release her debut album Louder, Please, via Play It Again Sam on January 17th. Along with the news, the multi-artist has also shared new single “Switch”, the follow-up to singles to “Free” and “Angel Of Satisfaction”. collaborators on Louder, Please include Justin Tranter (Chappel Roan) and Zhone (Troye Sivan).

“Switch”, which celebrates the fluidity of relationships but also your firm sense of self. “Switching things up is hot and we don’t talk about it enough,” comments Rose. “Why must we be defined as one role in a relationship or personality type?” The album was previously previewed by first single “Free”, an anthem about those things in life which have no material costs and also truly matter. This summer, Rose foreshadowed the darker element of Louder, Please with “Angel of Satisfaction”, exploring temptation after-dark, but also within the creative industries at large.

The UK artist hustled behind-the-scenes with roles ranging from the cloakroom girl to roleplaying illnesses for medical students. Rose’s early releases – the Dancing Drinking Talking mixtape, plus the Higher Than The Sun and Synchronicity EPS – captured London living as its daily grinds fade into those no-regrets, coming-of-age experiences.

Introducing her debut album today, Rose Gray comments: “I’ve always been obsessed with LOUD music, from late night car journeys with my Popps as a kid to spending my teens glued to the speakers of clubs. The album title was born on the mic, a running joke where I was always asking for things to be louder (please). I’ve spent ten years writing for myself and others, exploring different cities and their parties – but I’ve always known that I was working towards a body of work that brought all that together, and represented all sides of me. There’s definitely something in my personality which loves the adventure, and is always searching for more: I’ve also had my heart broken, fallen back in love, and become a woman in the process. To me, Louder, Please captures the rave, the ethereal, my friends and our stories: it’s classic pop with its roots firmly in the underground. On a beach or in a club, I want these songs to find their homes in someone else’s life. So enjoy – but make sure you play it LOUD, please?”
