Rosie Spotlight: A Chat to Jess

Hey Jess! Thanks for being keen to be in our Rosie Spotlight this month. Starting off easy – please tell us what’s the best thing about being part of the Rosie crew?

Where to start?! I knew as soon as I spoke to Quinny [Assistant Venue Manager] that I was gonna love this job and I do! The crew are so amazing at their jobs but most importantly I love how everyone is always looking out for each other, no one gets left in the dust, we really are one big family 😉

Got a favourite Rosie memory yet? Dish.

If I’m being honest everyday at the Rosie is a new favourite memory, but if I had to pick definitely the staff BOAT party!!!!!! The commitment everyone put towards it was so appreciated, it was just a really cool deserving thing for everyone here. Also vinnie on stage at R-Rated [Rammstein Tribute Gig]….

Ok, what about food and bevvies – anything everyone is totally sleeping on?

Call me crazy but I’m a huge advocate for Shiraz and cranberry juice! I like to think it’s a healthy drink that gets you feeling vibeyyyyy. Our chefs are so amazing I couldn’t possibly pick a favourite but I’m gonna pick a favourite and say the brisket pizza is a party in your mouth ;))))))

To work here, you’ve got to love music – so let us know, what’s currently on repeat in your headphones, and what upcoming gigs are you counting down to?

Ooooo I’ve been obsessed with the Lost Highway soundtrack for a good while now it’s just mwah mwah perfection !!!! Also Pantera, Massive Attack, Kelela and Pale Saints!

Ok – lets talk all-time favourites – what is the greatest live show you’ve ever witnessed? The one that still lives rent-free in your head.

Infinity Song who are actually playing at the Rosie in September which is so awesome, honestly I don’t really listen to their music religiously but holy moly they sound like angels live, highly recommend to get tickets for them they are so super cool :3

Tell us about yourself – what’s a fun fact about you that would surprise the people you work with?

I actually featured in a short film not too long ago, not very exciting but definitely a cool experience getting to spend time with very smart exciting people !! I also love doing yoga and acrobatics in my spare time !!!

When you’re not at Rosemount, what are you spending way too much time/money/energy on?

Honestly Rosemount is my go to spot either way, I just love the vibes all the time. So, most of my time/money/energy is spent there – but no complaints at all. I’m a big opp shopper also, my perfect day would be wake up, yoga, opp shop, pub hehe

Thanks so much for being our Rosie Spotlight this month, any final words?
