TOMMY ROGERS, lead vocalist, keyboardist and founding member of North Carolina progressive rock band BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME (also BTBAM) will release a solo album titled Pulse on February 1 via Metal Blade Records. The versatile front man and multi-instrumentalist, who not only self-produced the record, but also arranged, composed and played all instruments on the recording, will use the pseudonym THOMAS GILES (his given middle name) as his moniker for the project. 'Sleep Shake', the first music video from the album, which was also filmed and edited by Rogers has premiered below:
"Creating this album was a very unique experience for me," comments Rogers about the album recorded with Jamie King at The Basement Studios in Winston-Salem, NC. "I honestly never thought I would get a lot of this music recorded. This record was a way for me to step back, focus on simplified song structures and really build off of melodies. Even though I love fucking my throat up by screaming, it was very nice to sit back and chill out a bit. I named the record Pulse because it is a collection of thoughts and experiences I've had through the years. It's a very personal record and I hope the songs help people evaluate their lives and make the best of their time here. Find your pulse."For more info visit Myspace.com/thomasgilesmusic.
