Louisa Rowley

We all remember hearing that one song that changed everything we thought we knew about music. Well, we can’t get enough of new music, and ‘Making Waves’ is your guide to the new artists disrupting the scene…

Making Waves today is ‘A Peaceful Retirement’ by Louisa Rowley

Nostalgic, bluesy and sentimental are how you could describe, Louisa Rowley, a 24-year-old singer-songwriter who writes and performs blues/soul music.

Taking influence from several 20th/21st century artists, Louisa’s sound can be described as Bonnie Raitt meets Elvis meets Amy Winehouse! Louisa started writing music at 18 to help her cope with anxiety, and now uses it to explore her mental health, late autism diagnosis and post-adolesence.

Since starting her journey, Louisa has performed across London, making appearances at the Kilburn Folk Fest and Islington Radio Acoustic Showcase! Having released 2 singles in the last 2 years, Louisa will spend 2024 working on/releasing her debut EP.
