The following statement was recently posted on the myspace profile of the British prog-rock band
DeeExpus:
"Due to commitment issues, Kev Jager is no longer with DeeExpus. We are delighted however, to announce the
arrival of a very tallented young drummer to the DeeExpus Throne. Since
conception, The Band has been crying out for someone of his calibre,
someone who can not only cope with the parts but can bring Enthusiasm,
Finesse, Vibrance and damn fine Ass Kick to them. Already established
in the Progressive scene, winning second place as CRS Prog drummer of
the year in 2007; Ladies and Gentlemen, can you please welcome Mr Henry
Rogers!!"

DeeExpus - this talented band has so far released only one studio album, but they
can easily say... ‘the future looks bright for us’. With their superb
performance at the first edition of Prog Rock Festival at the
Wyspianski Katowice, Poland, the band show that they do have much to
say on the prog rock scene. DeeExpus’s music constitutes a modern
approach to the genre, more rock-oriented and catchy, yet formed with
undeniable finesse and attention to sound and musical nuances. Their
sound is as eclectic as their influences, drawn from years of listening
to such groups and artists as Joe Jackson, Iron Maiden, It Bites, Crash
Test Dummies, Rush, Nik Kershaw, Marillion and recently - Porcupine
Tree and Spock’s Beard. If you happen to think that prog rock is an old
and stagnant genre, DeeExpus are surely going to prove you’re wrong!
Currently, DeeExpus is writing and recording the follow up to their debut album. DeeExpus
forthcoming DVD entitled "Far From Home" will be released by Metal Mind
Productions on 6th July in Europe / 14th July in USA (via MVD).
