Trace Burroughs is far more than a Guinness World Record-holding drummer. While his record-breaking feats behind the kit—most notably his fiery, multi-drum solos—cemented his reputation as one of rock’s most daring performers, it’s his evolution into a versatile singer and songwriter that truly showcases his artistic depth. For a closer look at his musical catalog, fans can explore his extensive collection of 110 songs across five genres on his official website, TraceBurroughsMusic.com.

Though he’s known for his high-energy stage performances and explosive drumming, Burroughs’ journey as a vocalist has been just as revolutionary. His music spans hard rock, light rock, modern country, pop, and adult contemporary, demonstrating his ability to craft songs across various musical landscapes. While the fire and passion that once defined his drumming remain at the core of his work, it’s his ability to express raw emotion and personal storytelling through his voice that marks his true artistic growth.

The transformation from a drummer to a full-fledged singer-songwriter wasn’t just a natural progression for Burroughs; it was a conscious decision to embrace his voice as an instrument in its own right. After spending years behind the drum kit, he began experimenting with songwriting, inspired by a broad spectrum of influences from the British Invasion bands of the ’60s to the introspective lyricism of modern country.

Burroughs’ vocal style is a reflection of his hard-rock roots—powerful, gritty, and filled with emotional weight. Songs like his upcoming single Here I Come tap into universal themes of love, longing, and the raw energy of rock and roll. In his words, the track is a celebration of finding love against the backdrop of life’s trials, encapsulating the joy and the heartbreak that have shaped his own experiences.

This move into songwriting has allowed Burroughs to transcend his reputation as a mere performer and become a storyteller. His lyrics resonate with both passion and vulnerability, inviting listeners into the heart of his personal journey. And with projects like The Hard Rock Choir—where he blends gospel vocals with hard rock classics—Burroughs is continually pushing the boundaries of what it means to be a modern rock artist.
