Known for her expressive playing, engaging storytelling, and effortless charm, Rosie Bennet joins the label ahead of her highly anticipated debut release.

Rosie Bennet began her musical journey at the age of eleven, when she was awarded a scholarship, funded by The Rolling Stones, to attend the Yehudi Menuhin School. Since then, she has performed at major festivals and concert halls around the world, captivating audiences with her distinctive artistry and wide-ranging musical tastes.

Now based in Belgium, Bennet brings a global perspective to her work, having lived in the UK, the USA, and the Netherlands. Fluent in English, Dutch, and French, she is as comfortable on stage as she is behind the microphone. Her popular podcast series ‘Fret Not’, which she both hosts and produces, has featured many prominent guests including Derek Gripper, Sir Brian May, Irina Kulikova and Jason Vieaux.

With over 125,000 Instagram followers and more than 1 million YouTube views, Bennet has cultivated a vibrant online community. Her viral interview clips with Sir Brian May have reached audiences far beyond the classical world, with May himself praising Bennet’s playing as “the best sound I’ve ever heard on nylon strings.”

Rosie Bennet’s debut release on Sony Classical is coming soon, promising to showcase both her unique artistic identity and bold musical vision.

Bennet joins a distinguished lineage of guitarists on Sony Classical, including legends such as Julian Bream and John Williams, whose recordings helped define the sound of classical guitar in the 20th century. More recently, artists such as Marcin and Miloš have continued to expand the instrument’s reach and repertoire. Rosie Bennet stands proudly among them, starting a bold new chapter in classical guitar’s ever evolving story.

“As a musician, to be listened to deeply is the greatest honour. I know I stand on the shoulders of giants and I feel privileged to carry their legacy forward. I'm so grateful to the wonderful, creative team at Sony Classical for their vision, encouragement and belief in me as we begin this journey together.” Rosie Bennet

“Rosie stands among a vibrant new generation of artists, reimagining the future of classical music. A brilliant guitarist and communicator, she brings a fresh perspective to the guitar. We’re delighted to welcome her to Sony Classical.” Dr. Alexander Buhr, EVP A&R, Sony Classical
