LISTEN: Haroula Rose, ‘Margo’

Feb 22, 2016

Artist: Haroula Rose
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Song: "Margo"
Album: Here the Blue River
Release Date: March 25
Label: Thirty Tigers

In Their Words: "'Margo' came from the character in Once Upon a River, a book by Bonnie Jo Campbell. I fell in love with this story and this girl, and the song came to me in one go, pretty much. So I demoed into my phone and then we recorded it right away that same week. I had been listening and reading a lot about Townes Van Zandt, and of course I love Judee Sill, so I wanted it to feel like this vein of storytelling in a song that is so specific in nature but, in so being, it's universal somehow." — Haroula Rose
