about
Rosemary's Sons was founded in the fall of 1998 by a group of teenage friends. The band released an independent cd, Misery Loves Company, and it got immediate attention from record label Warner Music. In 2001 Warner Music offered the band, that had become quite popular in the Breda-area, a record deal. Lead by producer Oscar Holleman (Krezip, Heideroosjes), they released their debut album All In Hand. The album features guest appearances by Ilse deLange & Ren van Barneveld (former Urban Dance Squad). All In Hand was well-received and quickly entered the Album Top 100. The first single, Fall From Grace, is released in August 2001 and became a modest hit. The next single Shine (featuring Ilse DeLange) was played often on national radio and TV, made it to the top position in the Cyber Top50 charts for 2 consecutive weeks and got to no.34 in the Mega Top 100. Halfway june the third single was released, Up all Night. Rosemary's Sons found fresh energy in guitarist Maarten van Damme (former Abel) in 2002, while they were establishing an impressive live reputation. The band played big summer festivals like Paaspop, Bospop, Dauwpop en Lowlands. And also they were support for The Cranberries (Heineken Music Hall), Bush, De Dijk and Krezip and toured in most Dutch music clubs. All the hard work earned them an Essent Award and a Edison nomination for best new band of 2002. In 2003 Rosemary's Sons played 16 venues as support for Ilse DeLange. This is where the band showed it's strength
