Roger That

Think the Woodstock era with Marley and Lee Scratch Perry and the steel blues of Muddy Waters (circa electric mud) bangin’ together. Mash the raw electric, psychedelic, rock-reggae rep’s of those and you’d get close to Burleigh Heads based quartet rogerthat. The rogerthat experience is a free flowing live performance, and the band – now 2 and a half year old – is etching themselves into the ‘not to be missed’ file. The four piece have been developing at their own pace, melding their influences together, and they are now opening minds and hearts with a set of stylin’, raw and impromptu jams... 

The most rapid development for rogerthat has happened over the last eighteen months::
They headlined the gold coast’s Wonderland festival last year. And they have toured and gigged with a stack of other bands:: the herd, the beautiful girls, Bob Evans, spiderbait, Butterfingers, rastawookie and the custom kings and they’re now selling out their own gigs up and down the coast.

The road is the bands second – and now most often natural - home.

Chasing The Sun has just been released (in store through green media) and already it’s already picked up play on triple j and community stations (fbi in Sydney and RRR and pbs in Melbourne), around the country.

Chasing The Sun was recorded in mid ‘06 and it bridges the gap before the band release their full length album – to be released in mid-late 07.
