Yorkshire chanteuse Laura Groves, better known as Blue Roses, lilts onto our shores this week to support her new EP “Does Anyone Love Me Now.” Her magical voice and delicate arrangements recall the likes of Joanna Newsom and St. Vincent, and fans of haunting bedroom folk won’t be disappointed. Blue Roses released her self-titled debut earlier this year on XL Recordings and its intimate yet artfully layered soundscapes mesh perfectly with Groves’ perfectly measured vocals.
