I am Yukke Roswenda Rose, better known as Yucca Rose - a jazz vocalist and contemporary painter from Malang in East Java, where I was born on June 21th, 1979. To further my musical career, I moved to Jakarta to study at Elfa Music Studio and the Institut Music Daya Indonesia. Over the last eight years, I performed with a wide variety of jazz bands and musicians, and recorded an album with the Jakarta based band “Major Seventh” (published by Disc Tarra Indonesia).

I moved to Bali in 2010 to write my own musical material (which will be released on my upcoming first solo album later this year) and to paint - inspired by the serene surroundings of my new home.

I recently appeared in a leading role as actress, vocalist and announcer in the Cirque Du Soleil style theatrical show “Regalia - The Enchanted Forest” at the Bali Theatre (Bali Safari and Marine Park) with live performances on May 14th, 2011 and the Gala event on June 4th, 2011. For the original concept of this show (developed by Raining Heart Productions), I am also credited as Costume/Stage Designer and Artistic Co-Director.

My company Rose Entertainment develops high-end theatrical shows, contemporary and traditional art festivals/showcases as well as music events and art installations in Bali, Jakarta and Singapore.
