Early life and education

Rowe was born at the Beth Israel Hospital in South Bronx, New York. Rowe grew up on Prospect Avenue in Mott Haven.[6] She went to high school in Times Square NY, where she was enrolled in the gifted and talented program.[6] While a student, Rowe performed in four choirs, performing at Radio City Music Hall after school in a show called the British Rock Symphony.[2] As Rowe explains, "the singing definitely came before the songwriting. I didn’t know I could write songs at first. I was always into writing poems and short stories, but it took me a while to figure out I could write songs."[2]

At age 16, Rowe had an internship at Island Records. She decided she preferred creating music over working with labels.[6]

Career in songwriting

2009–2013

Rowe's first co-writing credit came when she signed a development deal with producer Swizz Beats who played one of her original songs to British soul artist Estelle. Estelle decided to rewrite parts of the song for her own project, keeping Rowe's chorus and writing new verses around it. This was Rowe's first experience of co-writing with an artist.[7]

In 2009, Rowe signed with B-Room/Water Music Publishing, which led her to a joint publishing deal with Steller Songs/Stargate Productions/EMI UK.[8]  In 2010, Rowe wrote the song "Rockstar" for Eva Simmons, which Rowe cites as being the beginning for her when it came to writing for a major label artist.[7] She was a writer for "Happiness" by Alexis Jordan, the song later becoming the FIFA Women's World Cup theme in 2011.[1] During an interview, Rowe stated, "Alexis Jordan's 'Happiness' is really significant, because it was my first hit and gave me my break in the industry."[2] Rowe also helped write Jordan's second and third singles from her debut album, namely, "Good Girl", and "Hush Hush".

In 2011, Rowe co-wrote the pop single "Hello" with duo Karmin, Stargate and Claude Kelly. Rowe also collaborated with British artist Cher Lloyd on the multi-platinum single "Swagger Jagger". In the same year, Rowe met The X Factor winner Alexandra Burke and began working on her album. Rowe also began writing with Leona Lewis and worked with her on her 2011 single "Collide" with Avicii, which peaked at number 4 on the UK Singles Chart. Rowe also was a writer for her 2013 single "Your Hallelujah".[9] In 2013, Rowe was a writer for the track "Don't Wanna Dance Alone" from the Fifth Harmony debut EP, Better Together.

2014–2020

Over the next few years, Rowe collaborated with many artists, including The Knocks, Alex Newell, Lindsey Stirling, RuthAnne, Dua Lipa, Pitbull, The Saturdays, Pink, Kacy Hill and Lindsey Stirling. In 2014, Rowe wrote "Sexy Love" with Cutfather and Wayne Hector in a writing camp in Copenhagen. The song was later recorded by Kylie Minogue and featured on her album, Kiss Me Once.[4] The same year Rowe co-wrote "Superbad" with Jesse McCartney for his album, In Technicolor. Continuing her collaborations with America's Got Talent contestant Grace Vaderwaal, Rowe co-wrote her singles "Gossip Girl", "Light the Sky", and "Clay". In 2017, Rowe collaborated with Leona Lewis on the Pitbull single, "Only Ones To Know".[9]

Rowe was a writer for the song "Love's Just a Feeling" from Lindsay Stirling's album Brave Enough.[10] She wrote and performed on "Give A Little" by American pop band The Hot Damns. Rowe was also a writer for "Salt" by Ava Max, from Max's debut album Heaven & Hell.[11]

In 2020, Rowe revealed she had been collaborating with long time friend, Jon Batiste, on his single "We Are". It was used for the official ''Mask Up America'' campaign.[4] Rowe cites the song as being "very special" to her. In November 2020, Rowe collaborated with producer Future Cut on the song "Why Don't You Love Me" which had been recorded by Dua Lipa and FKA Twigs and was teased on Lipa's live stream entitled "Studio 2054".[citation needed]

Rest of musical career

Autumn Band

In 2003 Rowe formed a band called Rowe band, with herself as the lead singer.[citation needed] In 2005, the band worked with Swizz Beats, who mentored her, which led to a collaboration in 2007 with Bone Thugs-n-Harmony where Rowe sang on 'Candy Paint' produced by Swizz Beats.[citation needed]

In 2006, Rowe released the EP Sunshine, whose title song was later used in the soundtrack for the film My Last Day Without You.[citation needed] In 2012 Rowe performed with French Rapper Disiz on the song Best Day, which was released via Def Jam Records in France.[citation needed]

In 2015 Rowe signed an artist deal with Ultra Records,[2] releasing her debut single, "If I Don't Have You". The song charted at 10 on the Deep House EDM Chart.[12] In 2018, Rowe began performing publicly as the DJ AFTR PRTY.[3]

Vocal coaching

In 2012 Rowe became vocal coach on Fox's The X Factor USA, where she coached and wrote for acts such as Fifth Harmony, Beatrice Miller and Carly Rose Sonenclar. From 2013 to 2017, Rowe was a vocal coach for NBC's America's Got Talent. Between season 8 to season 12, she was the only vocal coach on the show. During these seasons, she worked with winners Darci Lynne and Grace VanderWaal.[3]

Stepping away from vocal coaching on TV talent shows, Rowe was invited to judge on various song writing competitions, including the Music Is the Universal Cure Song competition and the Ascap Peggy Lee Songwriter Competition.[13]

Activism

As a coach and advocate for artists and songwriters, Rowe took the position of co-director for the Corona Virus Songwriter Emergency Relief Fund in 2020, offering grants to support songwriters through the pandemic.[14]

As a Black and Jewish songwriter, Rowe later began to use her social platform for activism, with a primary focus on the fight against racism and antisemitism, telling BBC Newsbeat in June 2020; "The fact is I am a black person, I can also be a Jewish person, I can also be a woman and a vegan, but no matter what, you can't take away from me that I'm a black person and you cannot take away my experience." In the same article, Rowe calls upon her fellow industry colleagues to play their role in the fight against all kinds of racism, stating; "as artists and writers, we have a way to communicate to the entire world – we have the platform of music – it's a universal language." Around the same time, Rowe joined songwriter Jocelyn Alice to create an internet show called The Conversation, a show which discusses the personal experiences of racism within friendships and also the music industry.[15]

Style and influences

Rowe grew up listening to DJs through her bedroom window in the South Bronx. "There was always music around me," Rowe expressed. Her prized possession was her mother's music collection, which she would listen to daily.[6]

Rowe has cited Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Massive Attack, Everything but the Girl, Kanye West, Hozier, Muse and TLC as her inspirations.[2][6] She described her musical taste as being diverse.[6] Rowe stated that she enjoys "emotive lyrics and music that makes you feel something whether it's in the club or in your heart."[2]

Personal life

Rowe is of Jewish heritage.[15] Rowe married Even Stenvold Tysse in Norway in 2019 and currently lives in Los Angeles.[4] Outside of music, Rowe is a fan of animals, cooking and vintage clothes. Rowe says, "I have to go to the zoo in every country I’m in, I enjoy cooking and finding vintage clothing gems in random shops. I would really love to meet a sloth if that matters at all."[2]
