“How About You” explores needy, melancholic, and self-destructive tendencies with unfiltered honesty. What begins as a personal confession for singer/songwriter Dan Rose quickly turns outward, challenging listeners to question their own identity and accountability.
Featuring fuller production than usual for the typically lo-fi solo artist, the song captures the tension between self-awareness and self-sabotage. It's a fearless self-portrait that urges others to confront themselves just as directly.

4 songs written in and inspired by New York. Vocals and guitar recorded in single takes in front of a single microphone. Lo-fi folky songs revolving around some green ideas and thoughts captured and referenced in this postcard from New York, the symbol of modern fast-paced life.

Danish solo artist Dan Rose: "The title of the EP is a friendly nod and dedication to the legendary venue The Bitter End in New York's East Village, where the likes of Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger and Jackson Browne used to perform. The heart of this EP was written in venues and bars in New York, and local artist Awkward Marina, which I saw perform at The Bitter End, even gets at mention at the top of 'The Bench In The Secret Gardens'; a song about having hope for a more positive direction for the climate debate. Another song, "Don't Be An Asshole", was written after a night out at the bar and concert venue Arlene's Grocery on Manhattan's Lower East Side. Behind the bar was a sign that said "don't be an asshole with the tips". Caring reaps benefits for everyone and in this song I compare it to taking care of our planet before it's too late, before the final bill has to be paid."
