Bess Rogers releases ‘Out of the Ocean’ album + plays Rockwood on 10.06

Folk rocker Bess Rogers returns on October 4th with her second full-length album, ‘Out of the Ocean,’ and a major U.S. tour. The CD’s inspiration came from a book entitled ‘Your Inner Fish,’ by Neil Shubin. Rogers comments: "The book is about our evolution from life as far back as prehistoric fish and microbes and how that has affected our bodies and our lives now. It really grabbed me and I found myself a bit obsessed. I started to look at everything we do in life as a product of evolution, and many of the songs on this record were inspired by that idea.” You can stream the album’s first single below and see Bess live in NYC on October 6 at Rockwood Music Hall.
