BIO

Ariana and the Rose is a Brooklyn-based synth-pop artist known for her 80s-inspired sound, theatrical flair, and emotional storytelling. Her debut album, Lonely Hearts Club, featured her signature blend of glittery synth-pop and raw vulnerability, earning her acclaim and features in outlets like People Magazine as well as an appearance on Full Frontal with Samantha Bee. Her second album and one-woman show, The Breakup Variety Hour, is a glitter-filled, neon-lit journey through the six stages of heartbreak, blending live music, stand-up-style comedy, and cabaret into a vibrant exploration of love, loss, and self-rediscovery. With over 15 million streams across her music and more than 30 million views on her viral Piano Chat videos, Ariana has built a devoted global following drawn to her humor, honesty, and heart. The show began as a sold-out residency at Joe’s Pub in New York City before touring across the U.S., earning acclaim for its mix of sincerity and spectacle. After a recent performance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Ariana is taking The Breakup Variety Hour worldwide, with upcoming shows at the Melbourne Comedy Festival and a London debut.

 

The breakup Variety Hour

Step into the glitter-filled world of The Breakup Variety Hour, the electrifying visual album and one-woman show and album from pop artist and native New Yorker Ariana and the Rose. A love letter to heartbreak, healing, and the wild ride in between, this immersive spectacle blends music, comedy, and a touch of chaos—think Carrie Bradshaw meets Bette Midler at a disco dive bar. Known for cultivating a vibrant community of women and kindred spirits, Ariana turns heartache into a high-energy, neon-lit celebration of resilience.Premiered to a sold out Joe’s Pub in NYC, Oct 2024, followed by a US Tour, with soaring synth-pop anthems, razor-sharp wit, and a splash of downtown glam, The Breakup Variety Hour is more than a show—it’s a movement, a cathartic party, and the ultimate reminder that the best revenge is living fabulously.

Press Highlights

Ariana and the Rose predicted the Dance-Pop revival...[she] is ready to ascend from indie act to mainstream star. The Brooklyn-based pop singer released her debut album Lonely Hearts Club, an impressive dance LP packed with hummable hooks and empowering lyrics that her foremothers (like Madonnaa, Robyn and Kyle Minoguee) would be proud of.”

- PEOPLE MAGAZINE

-

The album eschews second guessing in favor of bold statements, from the inclusivity anthem “Every Body” to the unrepentant “If New York Is Dead, Then Bury Me With Her” to the confident dancefloor come-on “Cosmic Lover.”
