Morgan Jay Rose (born December 13, 1968) is the drummer, record producer and founding member of the Atlanta-based alternative metal band Sevendust. He is also responsible for much of the background "screaming" vocals.

[edit] Career

Rose began his music career in the early 90s in the band Snake Nation alongside Vinnie Hornsby. In late 1992, Rose and Hornsby joined forces with Lajon Witherspoon, who was at that time in a R&B band called Body & Soul, and formed "Rumblefish", which was changed "Crawlspace" then to Sevendust after a name rights issue.

Rose features guest vocals on American heavy metal band Neverset track "Take It All Away".^[1]

Alien Freak Wear is his own small line of clothing with a few tee shirts, hoodies and many other items, including his signature drumsticks.

Due to Tommy Lee injuring his hand in August 2009 Morgan filled in on drums in place of Tommy, in Mötley Crüe, for 5 shows on Cruefest 2 from August 14 to August 19.
