Family-friendly metal entertainer SHRED ROGERS has released a lyric video for his track "I'm A Nut". The song is from the upcoming album The Circle which will be released on April 5, 2024 via Heavy Armor Records.
Christopher comments:
"This is my third reimagined children’s song and is the shortest and to-the-point. Musically the song is inspired by Green Day and more traditional children’s songs in rock form."

About SHRED ROGERS:
Based out of Three Rivers, MI, SHRED ROGERS emerged as an idea when Christopher began to foster and subsequently adopt his three children. Christopher has been a musician most of his life playing heavy metal of various types, with his most successful endeavor to date being co-founding A DARK HALO with Dave Lowmiller around 2004. When A DARK HALO was on hiatus from 2006 to around 2018, Christopher sought to write new heavy music. This time, creating something fun and family-friendly, but retaining the heaviness of music he loves and is inspired by. 2016 saw the release of the demo “Wheels On The Bus” under the moniker DADDY DEATH METAL and to date this demo video has racked up 56K views.
2018 brought the return of A DARK HALO and Christopher constructed his own home recording studio. Deciding to take his solo project further, it was rebranded as SHRED ROGERS with a focus on producing family-friendly metal across multi-media forms including music, video content, and comic books. Musically, SHRED ROGERS draws influence from the likes of METALLICA, DEVIN TOWNSEND, DIMMU BORGIR, and DREAM THEATER.
"To Achieve your Dreams, Wear your Heart on your Sleeve, Do your Best and Be Brave…The SHRED ROGERS Way!"
