Does Tim Rogers stop? The answer would be no as he adds another music project under his belt.
Meet Ferguson Rogers Process: a creative coming together of two of Australia’s biggest musical-minds in Tim Rogers (You Am I) and Lance Ferguson (The Bamboos). The new project sees the two take to stages across the country this November to celebrate their debut album Substance And Or Style.
The album launch and debut live shows will take place starting at Theatre Royal Castlemaine on Friday 22 Nov, heading to Brisbane, Melbourne’s Corner Hotel, and Sydney for two shows.

New songs From the Ferguson Rogers Process see the duo slink downtown from the music that they’ve made previously, with their own singular take on disco. It’s glamour meeting grit. It’s the movie star meeting the hustler. It’s discovering that there’s glitter in the gutter. It’s a revelatory combination of Rogers’ wry lyrics and Ferguson’s innate sense of groove.
With a band lead by Ferguson and featuring members of The Bamboos and Melbourne Boogie maestros Mondo Freaks and with one of this country’s greatest ever showmen on vocals, these shows promise to be something special. The third single from the album ‘Thumbs’ is out now following on from ‘Dirty-Clean’ and ‘Live Together’.
Lance Ferguson says, “I like to think that “The Process” in this case is hopefully what happens when someone experiences the music… I hope it ends up soundtracking some wild times.”
Tim Rogers adds, “Working with the Bamboos was such an enormous thrill and a life-threatening joy. These 10 songs are primarily for dancing, which is my second favourite life activity. And perhaps there is some lyrical bawdiness to tickle a bone. Come taste the Process.”
