The identical twins began writing songs soon after they became Christians, around the age of fourteen. Growing up in Birmingham, they have sung in various groups and chiors (as backing and lead vocalists), and draw from a wealth of musical influences, from Fauré, Handel and Mozart, to Ella Fitzgerald, Kirk Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Lauren Hill.In 2005 they produced their first EP, 'Love never Fails'. In a half hour interview with Justin Brierley on London's Premier Radio in September, Justin described the CDR as 'superb' and continues to give air-time. Clearrose are currently working on songs for Living Proof (aka the Henchmen), the Judderman, as well as composers JJ Ford and John Barber (j-barber.com) on a variety of projects. They worked with various friends as producers for the Attitudes CDR and are on the look out for more collaborations in the future.If you've listened to their myspace track Don't Worry, you will have heard Nikki Tapper on Radio WM give her view of the Attitudes CDR.With an 8/10 rating for the Attitudes CDR, here's what John Baugh of Crossrhythms had to say about their music:
"Attitude - now there is a word, ... these two (Clair and Rose) certainly have a good attitude. "In all I do, give me an attitude of praise in all that I am and have." I can't fault that... a groove to get you moving, tunes to draw you into singing along, lyrics to engage your brain and sweet voices to take your breath away. Is the message getting across? This is really, really good."
