Maggie Rose's EP 'Dreams > Dollars' dropped Friday May 19, 2017.

"This project was simply the most natural, relevant next step for me," said Rose. "I'm so inspired by what I am most passionate about: the music I made, and the people love. I've never been more comfortable in my own skin than I am now, and I think this EP showcases that."

Fueled by love and loss and her own personal experiences with the two, Maggie penned and co-produced the five-song EP, showcasing her evolution into "one of country's rising storytellers" (Washington Post). The EP -- currently sitting Top 10 on US iTunes' Country Albums chart -- is available here: hyperurl.co/MaggieRoseEP

Praised as "what's next in Nashville" (NPR), Maggie Rose is an artist know for creating without reservations, without regrets and always blurring the lines between genres. The provocative lead-off single "Body On Fire" has already dominated streaming platforms, landing Maggie as the only female Country artist in Spotify's Viral 50 chart upon premiere. The track debuted via Spotlfy's New Music Friday (5.5) with immediate adds to the platform's Wild Country and Weekly Buzz playlists. In addition, the song has been featured on SiriusXM's "On the Horizon", Pandora's New Country playlist and Apple Music's Breaking Country and Hot Tracks, where it currently sits at #19.

ABOUT MAGGIE ROSE

Birth name: Margaret Rose Durante

Born: May 19, 1988 Potomac, Maryland, US

In 2009, Durante signed to Universal Republic as Margaret Durante and released a cover of Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody". A year later, she left Universal Republic and signed to independent Emrose Records, an imprint that used the services of James Stroud's Stroudavarious Records. She charted two singles for Emrose ("Mississippi's Crying" peaked at #57 Hot Country Songs), which entered the Hot Country Songs charts in December 2010 and released her digital EP, MAYBE TONIGHT.

Durante changed her recording name to Maggie Rose in 2012 after signing with Scott Siman's RPM Management who launched the album with her as the flagship artist with the first single being "I Ain't Your Mama" (released June 25, 2012; #38 Hot Country Songs & #29 Billboard Country Airplay).

"Better" followed in early 2013 (#30 Billboard Country Airplay).

Both songs appear on her first RPM album, CUT TO IMPRESS.

"Looking Back Now", the third single from Cut to Impress, shipped to country radio in January 2014 and reached #46 Billboard Country Airplay. Later in the year, she released "Girl in Your Truck Song" (#58 Billboard Country Airplay). Maggie Rose departed RPM in 2015.

With super-sized vocals and genre-spanning songwriting chops that blur the lines between country, pop and rock, Maggie Rose has earned a loyal audience, both in her adopted hometown of Nashville and beyond. It's an audience that's grown with her for nearly a decade, spending days as a songwriter and nights sharing the stage with artists like Tim McGraw and Sheryl Crow. Through it all, Rose has established herself as a rare triple threat: a multi-faceted artist who can write, perform, and produce a hit song.

Raised in Maryland, Rose cut her teeth as the leader of a Bruce Springsteen cover band before beginning to write her own songs, drawing on her unique background — including a move to Nashville as a 19-year-old — for inspiration.

Since then, she's filled her resume with accolades, awards, and chart hits, including more than 30 appearances at the Grand Ole Opry, an Emmy Award, multiple performances on the nationally-syndicated Bobby Bones Show, and praise from outlets like Vogue, The New York Times and NPR.

The buzz has reached a fever-pitch with her newer songs, many of which were debuted on Rose's website during the summer of 2015, that combine the exhilaration of hip-hop with the impact of '80s rock and the rootsy, story-based stomp of country music. This scene-stealing look and sound was carried over to her latest EP, ’The Variety Show - Vol.1,’ which came out in April 2016.

The "Girl in Your Truck" became the girl in the gown after tying the knot with longtime love Austin Marshall in June 2016 in a classic church wedding ceremony (Photos at www.brides.com.).

Maggie Rose and Post Monroe joined superstar Martina McBride on her LOVE UNLEASHED Tour (Feb 2, 2017 - March 11, 2017), along with special guest Lauren Alaina. Alaina, Rose and Post Monroe were selected among CMT's "Next Women of Country" roster, which will cross the country.

On May 19, 2017 Maggie released ‘Dreams > Dollars,' a five-song EP she penned and co-produced. Fueled by love and loss and her own personal experiences with the two, the EP showcases Maggie’s evolution into “one of country’s rising storytellers” (Washington Post). ‘Dreams > Dollars’ plays as an exuberant, anthemic collection, delivering poignant clarity through her relatable stories of love, success and struggle. Provocative lead-off track “Body On Fire” features Maggie’s sultry vocals setting free the yearning urgency of required love. A tender guitar intro builds to the lust-filled crescendo, "you don't even need to try, you just set my body on fire!" It hits right in the solar plexus and you wait for it to happen again and again. Her explosive range empowers listeners to embrace their bodies and sexuality. The track debuted exclusively on Spotify’s Wild Country + New Music Friday (5.5).
