Rose Mallett began singing in elementary school as a part of the school chorus - and never stopped. In her teens, she was introduced to Marvin Gaye and was his guest during recording sessions at Motown where she witnessed great songs in-the-making such as “What’s Going On” and “Sexual Healing.” That exposure led to a working relationship with Motown producer, Hal Davis, who gave Rose the opportunity to sing recording demos of songs he had written to pitch to already signed female artists at Motown.
Rose has received exceptional training from Dick Grove School of Music; Roger Love, vocal coach; and vocal/stage performance instruction from Phil Moore, former orchestra director at Universal Studios, who once taught actress legend, Dorothy Dandridge.
Today, Rose sings professionally in various nightclubs across the U.S. – as well as acting in musical theatre productions. In Las Vegas, she performed at the Riviera and MGM Grand Hotels with Ben Vereen and Susan Anton. She’s done musical voice-overs for several movies, to include the song “I Never Think of You” featured in movie “Now and Then,” a New Line Cinema film starring Christina Ricci and Demi Moore.
Currently, she is a regular performer in Palm Springs at the renowned Purple Room. In 2024, her one-woman theatrical production “Songs of Sarah” – where she appears as jazz icon, Sarah Vaughan…a tribute to her life and music, was performed in San Diego and live-streamed globally by KSDS Jazz 88.3.
Rose returns by popular request! Her third performance in the Fourth Friday Jazz Series will highlight jazz standards, many by the most revered Divas of Jazz - Vaughan, Holliday, Fitzgerald - that illuminate and exude her “Peace & Joy” theme for the evening. Joining her are three of San Diego’s finest: Melonie Grinnell (Piano), Rob Thorsen (Double Bass) and Richard Sellers (Drums).
