ABOUT Roses Are Blu: First and foremost I’m an independent musician who has studied music and performed professionally from a very young age. I've been coaching voice and songwriting for close to 15 years now. I also graduated from USC where I studied film, sound, and composing. Throughout the course of my music career I acquired a variety of different skills - everything from graphic design to producing - and I wanted to utilize all these skills I learned and loved to start my own business, a creative hub called Roses Are Blu. I coach artists, help them with co-writing and producing albums, as well as with video production, promo photos, graphic design, branding, and copywriting. Essentially all the things I needed help with along the way that over time I learned to do myself. I adore coaching and helping artists with all aspects of a release but I also enjoy doing creative work for non-music related clients as well. My goal is to do exceptional work while keeping my rates affordable. Depending on the budget and scope of a project I have editors, cinematographers and studio musicians I sometimes bring on board. Work samples below. Reviews here. Feel free to drop a line for more info. <3 Arrica Rose
