Modern jazz virtuosity combusts with a raw, eclectic mixture of rock, funk,
blues, country and R&B in a volatile combination that evokes the gritty street
sounds of a bygone New York on the self-titled debut release by Adam Rogers
DICE.

“DICE” features Adam Rogers - Guitar, Fima Ephron - Bass and Nate
Smith - Drums: three of the most dynamic, versatile and sought after musicians
in the world of improvised music today. The sound of the group reflects the
varied influences of Jazz, Funk, Rock and experimental music that have imbued
Adam’s musical sphere since first picking up the guitar. Being a product
of the 1960s and 70s musical landscape, Adam’s initial musical
inspirations were The Beatles and the sounds of R+B that were pervasive at the
time – The Temptations, The Four Tops, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes
– to later subsuming the immense influence of Jimi Hendrix, the blues
masters and the music of Charlie Parker and John Coltrane. He has crafted a body
of work for the group that, through his kaleidoscopic lens, sonically and
musically refracts his musical history into a cohesive, groove laden musical
concept.
