Morgan Rose

Rose began his music career in the early 90s in the band Snake Nation alongside Vinnie Hornsby. In late 1992, Rose and Hornsby joined forces with Lajon Witherspoon, who was at that time in a R&B band called Body & Soul, and formed “Rumblefish”, which was changed “Crawlspace” then to Sevendust after a name rights issue. Morgan Rose is one of the most respected and most innovative drummers in the industry, being voted by Drum Magazine and Drummerworld as one of the top 100 drummers of all time. He is also one of the most charismatic members of the band, and often writes lyrics and is the backup vocalist when playing live. Australia’s Rolling Stone Magazine voted him as the “hottest drummer” in history, thanks to a poll that was taken in 2003.

Rose features guest vocals on American heavy metal band Neverset track “Take It All Away”.[1]

Alien Freak Wear is his own small line of clothing with a few tee shirts, hoodies and many other items, including his signature drumsticks.

Due to Tommy Lee injuring his hand in August 2009 Morgan filled in on drums in place of Tommy, in Mötley Crüe, for 5 shows on Cruefest 2 from August 14 to August 19.

Eye Empire has tapped Morgan Rose to record the drums on the band’s debut album, “Moment of Impact”.[2]
