Bones UK, a Grammy-nominated duo from London, is made up of Rosie Bones (vocals/guitar) and Carmen Vandenberg (guitar). The band is known for blending heavy rock riffs with gritty electronic sounds, unapologetically expressing their views through their music. Rosie and Carmen have carved out a space in the music world where they tackle societal norms with their rebellious energy, creating a unique mix of rock, old-school industrial, and 90s electronica. Their fierce style has made them a standout act in the modern rock scene.
Their sophomore album “Soft” continues this trend, delivering an empowering collection of tracks. With their anthemic lyricism, Bones UK builds on the rebellious tone of their previous projects. The album showcases their distinctive sound, combining a visceral energy with a futuristic take on rock and electronic music. Soft feels like a natural progression for the band, cementing their place as a force to be reckoned with in the rock world.
