Scott Roman

Alternative Rock / Experimental / Industrial
Phoenix, Arizona, USA

“As Lead Singer and chief Songwriter for the band No Laughing Matter, Roman gained the reputation for wearing his heart on his sleeve and being honest with his audience concerning his thoughts, feelings, struggles and more. Sometimes painfully so…. As part of No Laughing Matter listeners had grown accustomed to a thought provoking yet angst-fueled assault. In his solo projects there is still some angst, but also more introspection and raw honesty about personal experiences, fears, thoughts, and beliefs. Roman's music is full of emotion, progressive, and at times experimental.” (from https://store.cdbaby.com/artist/ScottRoman)
