We are still alive!
Hi guys, don't worry are still here and live and kicking! We've all been very busy at work and university but have done some pretty cool thins in the past month. In December we played at the world famous London Roundhouse just near Camden for the Best of 30/30 2012 launch party in association with Roundhouse Records and EMI Records. The compilation album is avaliable for digital download in all the usual places online including iTunes, Spotify and Amazon. Our single 'Makes Me Feel Good' is track 1 on disk 1, exciting. There's the link to us on iTunes; http://itunes.apple.com/gb/artist/tempting-rosie/id480955001.
We also hosted our seventh Pressure Drop at The Yardbird in Birmingham on Friday 23rd December. Our support was from The Reuben James Band and Dubweiser. It was a great night as usual with some fantastic music, dancing and drinking on offer. If you were one of those who missed it then go and check out this video by Chris Hammond Media; www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-cjqwgQv8s
Our other piece of big news is that we're heading to London on Friday 17 February to play at Rich Mix just off Shoreditch High Street as part of the Roundhouse Rising 2012. It's only a fiver, and on a Friday night in London with some of the best up and coming acts in the country it's going to be worth it. Here's the link!; http://www.richmix.org.uk/whats-on/event/roundhouse-remixed/

Hello November!
As we crash into November, we're keeping very busy. Last weekend for Bonfire Night we played the Hootenanny in Brixton, London, and what a night it was! With us all travelling miles upon miles through the day, and going on stage at the latest we ever have, we were all shattered, but rocked the house and the crowd didn't fail to disappoint. From start to finish it was non-stop, sweaty, skanking fun. We can't wait to go back!
Also if you check our events you will see that we're back in London, this time Camden at the Roundhouse on Thursday 1st December, and we return to Birmingham with our club night Pressure Drop on Friday 23rd December, for some Christmas fun.
Some other big news we have, is that we've signed up to McFly's Super City Battle of the Bands Competition. Basically the highest ranked Top 50 according to votes will get to open a show for them, and we reckon we'd be more fun than your generic Indie band. Either way, you can go and vote for us here; http://supercity.mcfly.com/battleofthebands/view/877, so go and do that, share that link, tell your friends, you know what to do.

September/October update
So we've had a very busy week. We have been recording at the EMI Studios at The Roundhouse and Roundhouse Records in Camden, London, to record one of our latest singles 'Makes Me Feel Good'. It was produced by Spider Johnson who has worked with some massive reggae artists all over the world including Lee 'Scratch' Perry and Pama International, so was perfect to add his ideas and produce our latest reggae party track. It is online everywhere on the internet to listen to in all the usual places; Facebook, YouTube, ReverbNation. You can also find us on Twitter. Also we travelled up to Whitchurch in Shropshire to play the OXJAM Big Party at the Blackberry Fair with Kid British. The crowd got going and into us and had a right old party with us and the Kid British boys. We're trying to sort more gigs for us and them throughout the UK, and for our next gig we're back at Hootenanny, Brixton for a bonfire night special on November 5th.

Tempting Rosie are one of thirty bands that have been picked from thousands of applicants to be part of the 30/30 project. The idea of the project is that each band gets to spend a day in the Roundhouse studio in London recording a track with a top producer. Then all the tracks are put on a CD and released through the in house label Roundhouse records and distributed thorugh EMI!
