I'm Chinese
Featured at the 2010 AIF Interfaith Music FestivalGeorgia natives Frank Wells, John Rosser, James BrassWood, and Stephen Dimmick come together to form I’m Chinese, a band whose inspiration is rooted in life itself.
The music of I'm Chinese demands that you make one decision: Kill Yourself or Change The World!
From drugs, crime, and loss, to academics and accomplishments, every member of I’m Chinese tried to live life the way others said they should, only to be failed. Front man Wells explains, “This world is full of people who have sold their soul for an hourly wage; for a nice car and a pretty date; and it has added nothing to their lives. Life in its most fulfilling form is freedom and love, and that’s what we’re trying to share with you.”
Wells and Rosser, having met on the last day of 2008, teamed up to write and record “a few songs.” Gaining momentum, the duo began playing every open mic night in Atlanta and received warm reception. A couple of months in, they realized, “Dude, we can do this. Let’s form a band!”
Enter I’m Chinese. BrassWood, a previous band mate of Wells, and Dimmick, Rosser’s next-door neighbor, joined the team and the magic began.
The band's debut EP entitled "Already Free" is available as a free download at www.DownloadImChinese.com

Reckoner
Can you take it with you
Disavow the pleasure
You were not to blame for
Bittersweet distractors
Dare not speak his name
Did I cater to all you
All your needs?
Because we separate
it ripples our reflections
Because we separate
it ripples our reflections
Reckoner
Did I cater to all you
All your needs?
