The Rosie Taylor Project came together in a redbrick Victorian shambles in Leeds. A

modest beginning, with practices spent squished into a small living room, things

soon took on a more disciplined hue when, after a handful of gigs, they signed to

Bad Sneakers Records. Shortly after a debut album 'This City Draws Maps' appeared

receiving kind words from the likes of Drowned in Sound and This Is Fake DIY.

Singles lifted from this record featured regularly on MTV2 and benefited from radio

play on 6 Music, XFM, and KCRW in the US. In the meantime, live shows included

appearances with Camera Obscura, Midlake, Jens Lekman and Jeffrey Lewis to name but

a few. Marc Riley has also kindly hosted the band on his 6 Music show for a number

of live sessions.

Having recently returned to the studio a second album Twin Beds was recorded, and

new single 'Sleep' was released in the summer of 2011. 'Sleep' received air play

from Huw Stephens on Radio 1, Steve Lamacq on Radio 2 as well as support from a

number of 6 Music presenters.
