The Shedding
Bio :
Indie R&B/Jazz/House singer-songwriter Rogiérs is creating his newest work, "The Shedding". Discover his world-renowned voice and sound covered by Okayplayer, WHUR, Choice FM, IDJ Magazine, Soulbounce, and more! Rogiérs is a New York bred singer-songwriter, producer and recording artist with three independent albums and over 15 artist collaborations distributed worldwide on various imprints in Jazz, Soul and House/Deep-House. He has toured internationally in concert halls, festivals, supper-clubs and television both as a featured solo artist and supporting act to Alicia Keys, Robert Glasper, Christian McBride, Jaleel Shaw, Chris Dave, Laura Izibor, N'Dambi, Platinum Pied Pipers, ?uestlove (The Roots) and other notables. Most recently Rogiers studied in Valencia, Spain in the first ever Master's degree program of the acclaimed Berklee College of Music where he performed many concerts and headlined the Terraza Jazz Festival, July of 2013. February 2014 will bring forth the anticipated release of Rogiers' fourth release on Fibby Music Recordings entitled, theShedding. The albums' lead single "Messed Up On Love" has over 35,000 views since its November release on VEVO and YouTube. In support of this effort, Rogiers will be kicking off the album release with dates in Spain this February.
The crooning singer-songwriter delighted us on such hits as the Platinum Pied Piper’s cover of “50 Ways To Leave Your Lover” as well as on creamy gems like “Come Into My World,” “Hollywood Story (featuring Bilal)” and “Fa Sho” from his debut album Life & Music: All of It, a smooth soul classic. After releasing various singles and remixes in the ensuing years to keep fans appetite whet, Rogiérs is on his way back to you with a new album, theShedding. We’ve got an exclusive first listen of the forthcoming album’s brand new single "Messed Up On Love (featuring Stephanie Fisher).” Written by Rogiérs and co-produced with Rogiérs by David Hunter, the song signals a new, more pop direction from the soul star, still by this clean cuts end, this American expatriate in the U.K. definitely reminds you of his urban roots. Developed for wide appeal, this new effort lays bare the emotive singer’s raw emotions of love, loss and perspective. Newcomer Stephanie Fisher more than delivers in a surprising 11th hour vocal, giving Rogiérs a very capable duet partner at this journey’s end. Together they make the long delay for a new Rogiérs project well worth the wait.
