About Bess Rogers

___________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________

"Music is a healer of ills, souls and broken hearts and occasionally a voice or artist can come around that completely throws a spanner in the works of the accepted status quo and brings the entire industry to their way of thinking.... Bess Rogers could well be the next on the list." www.subba-cultcha.com
"The music of Bess Rogers is a carnival of sound, filled with thought, information, adventure. It is clear that this Brooklyn resident has done her homework and clearly made the right decisions. Even though her debut album took two years to complete, you quickly get the feeling that is only the begin for Bess Rogers." - What To Wear During an Orange Alert
"Decisions Based on Information finds Brooklyn-based Rogers not only testing her vocal capacity from track to track, but also using every instrument you might find in a music conservatory....Decisions is a stunningly adventurous debut that unravels itself a little more upon each listening." - Alyssa Rashbaum, Rebel Spirit Music.com.com
"You want to hear more, even if you're not sure why. This is intimacy at its finest, where every listen is you own private show." pensatos.com

saul house fans club	Jun 23 2008 11:30 AM Wow. Very cool. Your voice is very unique spine chilling, eclectic, soulful and slightly eerie in a romantic spell binding way. I like "Return the most." and I congratulate you on your keen sense for one of a kind artistry and purely genuine star quality performances. And unwind to. if you have time please commentary my space ok bay bay Spanish graphics from saul house

Photography by Carissa	Jun 14 2008 6:30 AM i am stoked that you like them... you guys are amazing, and really inspired me. i hope all is well. safe travels!
Tom Ryan & Company	Jun 12 2008 7:17 AM You're amazing! Thanks for the add - I found your songs to be rich in variety. Usually I try to pick a favorite for a comment, but I couldn't so this will set a record for looong comments. NOTICE is remarkable for it's wonderful simplicity - SEE ME, SEE YOU and MODERN MAN for the surprising percussion and WALTZ ME has a wonderful Cajun flavor. I just got back from Louisiana with my other band, Copper Rose www. myspace. com/copperrosemusic where we were immersed in Cajun culture and we're adding those flavors to our set. I'd appreciate your thoughts on my songs if you get a chance. Bravo! Tom
