RoseRed And The Butterflies, aka Lydia Nicolaides is a prolific singer/songwriter from north London Enfield, with a DIY ethos. She pens catchy lyrics and silver tongued melodies that tell stories in a refreshing and original way. With a mixture of realism, fun, quirkiness and sadness, RoseRed’s music can move effortlessly from lightness into dark, and her style crosses a variety of genres, from Folk to Rock; from Country to Reggae. ‘Imagine Mary Poppins on acid’ playing the guitar and dancing like a pixie. RoseRed released her eagerly awaited debut album ‘Just A Glimmer’ in 2010 an album which she wrote, recorded, produced and funded herself, in-between several years of playing the London gig circuit and which got voted and won the Fatea Magazine debut album of the year 2010 Award. She has had two of her songs feature in two British Independent Films 'Jesus Versus The Messiah' and 'Chinese Burns'. She has just released her second album New Age Drifter. “a finely crafted acoustic pop album with an absolutely delightful dreamy vocal...” “an album to set the spirit soaring, uplifting and imaginative” - Fatea Magazine (Just A Glimmer) “It is impossible to keep a smile off your face while listening to New Age Drifter. The entire album is just full of joyful music to get your foot tapping, and provide a lift to your soul. From the soaring Tickle My Feet, the timely Fire In The Rain, to the beautiful introspection of End Of The Line, this will keep you coming back to listen to it again and again. As soon as it finishes, you just have to press play again… it's the ultimate "just one more listen" album.” Adam Jenkins - Fatea Magazine
