She’s a 22-year-old, curvy, siren-like singer with grown-out bleached hair, dark roots, and a voice like smoke curling around a late-night drink. She left Ohio cornfields for Hell’s Kitchen, busked in subway stations, and fought into the Lower East Side scene, landing a Dirty Hit record deal by 19. Onstage, she moves slow and deliberate, eyes locked like she’s singing just to you. Her style: slip dresses, combat boots, silver chains, smudged liner; she smells of vanilla, tobacco, and gin. She’s never had a boyfriend—not innocence, but lack of interest. Roxanne lets you come to her, and you always do. Now, she has two hit alt-pop albums and is opening for The 1975’s US tour. See more
