Best known as one half of Let\u2019s Eat Grandma alongside Jenny Hollingworth, Rosa steps into a bold new chapter with her most personal and expansive work to date \u2014 a record full of light, colour, open skies, friendship, dreams and emotional honesty. In this conversation, Rosa talks about why Tell Me It\u2019s A Dream did not feel like a solo project made to prove a point, but rather a natural space to explore songs that did not quite fit inside Let\u2019s Eat Grandma. She reflects on making music outside the band, developing a different vocal style, writing constantly, and how the album became a world of its own. Rosa also discusses working with Sam E Yamaha, recording in Wales at StudiOwz, and co-producing the album with David Wrench, whose long creative relationship with Rosa helped make the process feel safe, open and freeing. The conversation also explores songs including \u201cSorry Anyway,\u201d \u201cPrettier Things,\u201d \u201cHeart To Heartbreak\u201d and \u201cHalfway Round The World,\u201d as well as Jenny Hollingworth appearing as Jenny On Holiday on \u201cPrettier Things.\u201d Elsewhere, Rosa reflects on the huge life of \u201cI Really Want To Stay At Your House\u201d from Cyberpunk 2077, why the song\u2019s success felt disorientating, and how she separated that moment from the guitar-led world of Tell Me It\u2019s A Dream. As Rosa says in the episode, if Tell Me It\u2019s A Dream was a place, it would be a vast, freeing, dreamlike landscape in the sky \u2014 with ice cream.
