Having been raised in a Mormon community in Hitchin, trainedin piano and violin at a Paris conservatoire, self tutored insinging 'jumping intervals' and 'jazz standards' and thenjoining an African Choir; it is unsurprising that RoxyRawson's idiosyncratic style of music is less thanconventional and more than stimulating in it's eccentricityand finesse.Violin is at the basis of all of Roxy's music; on it she playsmultiple parts. She is the rhythm section plucking at violinstrings and ring finger tapping the body in time to herpercussive vocal delivery. She strums the violin like aukulele and uses household objects such as biros in place of abow to create a unique backing track to her vocals and popinspired melodies. Laughter, humming and scatting garnish thisdelicious gumbo of sound.Roxy has already been championed by the Independent on Sundayas the UK's answer to Regina Spektor and her inimitable warmthand charm is discussed nearly as often as her fruity modusoperandi.Roxy was one of a select handful of artists, carefully chosenfor release by Ambiguous Records. The label was set up by AlMobbs, double bassist and erstwhile collaborator with DamonAlbarn on Goriilaz, The Good the Bad the Queen, Marium &Amadou and Monkey. Aside from his own successful career as amusician, writer, and broadcaster, Al runs one of London'smost fruitful independent labels. He spotted a gap when hismusician friend Mr David Viner found himself on tour with TheWhite Stripes, but with no label, record and merchandise topromote. Thus Ambiguous was born, released Viner's firstsingle and has since become home to a colourful array of newartists.Ambiguous Records were recently asked to curate Hush, anindependent label showcase at the Royal Albert Hall. On Feb24th Roxy Rawson played alongside Orphans & Vandals andBenjamin Onono in this grand setting. Ambiguous are the latestin a line of hot new labels to showcase at the illustriousvenue, including Moshi Moshi, Transgressive and Chess Club.Roxy releases her debut, the Changing Things EP on AmbiguousMay 4th.
