JOHNROSE

From the Press release from 30. November 2023 myhe press agency Dr. Music Promotion: 
Der German musician and multi-instrumentalist Johannes Rösgen, aka JOHNROSE, began his musical career in the mid-1970s in the school band Flashbolt and earned his first spurs as guitarist for the Progressive Rockband Athis. Since 1982 he has also been the guitarist and singer of Copyright, which, in addition to countless gigs, also released an album in 1999. He also fronted Giant For A Day for three years and opened for legends like Manfred Mann's Earth Band and Alan Parsons. Since 2015 he has bean performing mainly as JOHNROSE and released the double CD “Ride The Raven” based on the tapes from his time at Athis in the early 80s and subsequently the albums “Behind The Gates”, “The Key” and most recently “Wings”, which were received positively by the music press. JOHNROSE's new album is emotionally poignant, and the messages and symbolism of the lyrics are profoundly touching, leaving the listener entirely lost in the music. At the same time, everything is woven into a warm, thoughtful soundscape with musical elements from the last four decades of sophisticated Rock music. “The Prophet’s Dance” presents a musically more mature and purpuseful JOHNROSE and visually, the CD is also a real eye-catcher thanks to the filigree artwork by Thomas Ewerhard (including Avantasia, Neal Morse, Volbeat), which perfectly visualizes the spirit of the album.
