“We all love a pretty girl - Under the rose” Isaac Bickerstaffe
Like A Rainbow.
Over soul music and a desire for change and evolution, Garry, Soo and Stuart bonded and warmed. Soo spake unto the boys: ‘Lay down thy effects pedal and cast aside thy need for wallet chains and join me and I will make you fishers of men’. Garry and Stuart focused their powers on good and picking up acoustic guitars, fitted Soo’s beautiful voice to music.
Honour Amongst Thieves.
Guitars, guitars, guitar...

Honour Amongst Thieves.
Guitars, guitars, guitars. With one guitar and two guitarists, problems soon presented themselves. Money was short due to a reliance on sweeties, nice shoes and good haircuts. A guitar was procured (stolen is such a dirty word, and so incriminating); and thus was born Subrosa. And the first child of this tri-marriage ‘Pressed In A Book EP’ came into this world, a mewling, puking, babe in arms; and like a babe in arms, loved by so many and unlike a babe in arms, shown to the world (which is to say retail therapists and people in retail therapy) for the first time in the Birmingham branch of Topshop.
Dedicated To Harpocrates, The God Of Silence.
From this traditional beginning, they then took the tried and tested route to superstardom; gigs in bars, Chinese restaurants, castles, anywhere basically. London beckoned and, as the streets are paved with gold, the three set sail.
Barbary Corsairs.
Buckles were swashed as a room full of drunken pirates were calmed and won over with the power of song and the finest spices were exchanged in lieu of payment. But then, these things are wont to happen and as such, do. Dates were set and recordings were made for the mini-album proper.
All Animals Are Created Equal. But Some Are More Equal Than Others.
A new EP was recorded in London. Lodgings were taken in an abandoned children’s nursery and things very nearly got a little bit ‘Ghost Hunting with Subrosa’, but in the end they didn’t. They were left unsupervised but like all naughty children ultimately have good hearts. This comes through in the music, produced by Ville and Mat Leppanen.
It’s Not an Addiction, its A Desire.
The Future Lasts A Long Time.
