Few voices have the power to cut to the bone like Pam Rose’s. Layer that
over her profound songwriting gift and her consummate musicianship on
an assortment of instruments, and you begin to get a glimpse of a real
artist.
With longtime writing partner Mary Ann Kennedy, Rose has been
nominated for two Grammy Awards, and has won praise for her powerful
alliance with Mary Ann as the acclaimed duo Kennedy Rose. The twosome
won the ear of rock star Sting and recorded two CDs for his private label
Pangaea Records. As an added treat, they were asked to open for him on
one of his World Tours. As special guests of Emmylou Harris, Kennedy Rose
also performed twice for President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary
Clinton, and later at the Nobel Peace Prize Presentation in Oslo, Norway.
As a solo artist, she has been touring with guitar virtuosos John Jorgenson
and Tommy Emmanuel, and has recently rejoined Mary Ann Kennedy and
Emmylou Harris to do an acoustic tour of Europe and North America in
2006 and 2007. Tour dates are posted on Pam’s website and at
www.emmylou.net.
Born in Chattanooga, she moved with her family to Atlanta, then to Brevard
County Florida where her father worked as a communications engineer for
the Space Program. After majoring in Music at Florida State University,
she lived in Atlanta and was mentored by musician Paul Mitchell before
returning to Tenneesse.
The fact that Rose has chosen to live in Nashville for most of her career has
proven very beneficial for her career as a songwriter, and has added yet
another facet to her range of influence. Many artists in country music as
well as pop music have recorded her songs, ranging from Reba McEntire to
Art Garfunkel. Some of these songs include “Ring on her Finger, Time on
Her Handsâ€, “Safe In The Arms of Love†by Martina McBride, and the
classic country/pop crossover ballad “I’ll Still Be Loving Youâ€, by Restless
Heart, which won her one of her Grammy Nominations.
