The new track follows on from La Rosa’s pervious tunes Pride and Drowning. The Fremantle-based artist finds his greatest source of fulfilment in performing music, but he’s also a huge advocate for LGBTI rights and mental health awareness.

Philip launched his first single, Pride, in 2016 after collaborating the Banton Brothers who co-wrote and produced his debut EP, Strong. Being buoyed by the support for Pride, La Rosa sought the talents for rising producer Taka Perry for his next single Drowning, released in support of Mental Health Day.

La Rosa said his goal is to make songs that other people can relate to.

“I take a life event and write about it, workshop it and try and bring a message out of it if I can. I just love the idea that someone can listen to a song and relate, and I aim to do just that. I think it helps people understand they’re not alone on this massive planet.”  La Rosa said.

2019 is shaping up to be a big year for Philip La Rosa, look out for upcoming tour dates and new releases later in the year.
