Rosie and the Goldbug was the eponymous debut album by Rosie and the Goldbug, released on September 15, 2008, on the band manager's label, Lover Records.[1] It was produced by Jim Eliot of electropop duo Kish Mauve[2] and mixed by Dave Bascombe.

The album contains a number of tracks co-written with other artists, including Marcella Detroit, formerly of Shakespear's Sister, Dante Gizzi and Giuliano Gizzi of the Glasgow bands El Presidente and Gun[2] and Ashley Pope from UK dance duo NAPT.

It was to remain the band's only album; the band broke up in 2009. Singer/keyboardist Rosie Vanier has gone on to start a solo project.
