iLike Bess Rogers


Drawing Number One Productions Dan Romer produced my record and this is where he can be found. Please go here if you are interested in booking him for your next sweet sixteen or bar-mitzvah.

Once More with Feeling: a podcast featuring Andrew Futral (The Age of Rockets), Jenny Owen Youngs, and myself. God bless the internet.

The Age of Rockets: I'm in this band and we make synth/orchestral/pop music that will make your heart bleed a liquefied version of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe.

Ingrid Michaelson: I make lots of sound come out of a guitar with this maker of American popular music!.

Jenny Owen Youngs: You might also find me playing guitar with this swash-buckling sea-lady.

"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

Bess, your cd hasn't left my stereo in weeks. You're making the rest of my music collection nervous.
Keep on rockin' in the free world lady!

you guys are amazing,
and really inspired me.
i hope all is well.
safe travels!

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
