Life and career

Rosie May Hudson-Edmonds was born on 31 December 1996 in a paddling pool in her parents' flat in Muswell Hill, in the London Borough of Haringey. Gray has stated that her love for music was inspired by her mother and stepfather, who are both actors. As a child, her stepfather encouraged her to work on music with him. Aged 14, she reached the final of Open Mic UK 2010. She then signed to a record label and wrote over 100 songs for them. However, she decided she wanted to leave, but was unable to keep any of her original music. Gray then became immersed in London's nightlife and briefly worked on the door at Fabric. After a brief period of not making music, Gray began slowly releasing singles and writing for other artists. She released "Good Life", her debut single, in 2019.
After numerous single releases, in 2021, Gray released her debut mixtape, Dancing, Drinking, Talking, Thinking. DIY praised Gray for the project and billed her as "a name to watch". A year later, after being signed to PIAS Recordings, she released an extended play, Synchronicity, followed by another EP, Higher Than the Sun. In 2023, she released the single "Happiness", as well as collaborating with French DJ Kungs on "Afraid of Nothing". She was also one of 11 selected female singers to feature on "Call Me a Lioness", a song recorded in support of the England women's national football team at the FIFA Women's World Cup.
Having remained involved in clubs and nightlife, Gray began playing unannounced sets in clubs weekly and enjoyed seeing the positive response to her music, both released and unreleased. In July 2024, Gray released "Free" as the lead single from her then unreleased debut album. She later released the second single, "Angel of Satisfaction", a month later. Then in September 2024, she announced that the title of her first album was Louder, Please, as well as releasing "Switch" as a single. It was released on 17 January 2025. She is set to play her first national tour across the UK in promotion of the album. She also supported Sugababes on their Sugababes '25 Tour, as well as Kesha and the Scissor Sisters on The Tits Out Tour. She is set to release a deluxe edition of her debut album in October 2025, titled A Little Louder, Please. As well as featuring singles "April" and "Lotus", it also includes collaborations with Melanie C, Jade, Shygirl and Casey MQ, as well as various remixes and club edits.

Personal life

Gray has been in a long-term relationship with English actor Harris Dickinson since secondary school. Two of Gray's music videos, for her songs "Blue" and "Afraid of Nothing," were directed by Dickinson.
