Sam Buck Rosen

samrosen.jpgSam Rosen, whose rotating live band includes the illustrious Jason Anderson, runs his own label called Truthtone and plays some grungey-glammy-reggae. The Brooklyn native is on a bit of an eastern seaboard tour right now, hitting up schools and making his way toward Bennington on March 15. He also opened for Vampire Weekend at their Bowery CD release in January.

Interestingly, Rosen tried out a “tour EP” strategy for selling some discs. According to his blog, he sold out all the “tour only” records and is considering a release of these on his label. Whatever sells, but tour only releases, hm? I like it.
