Beat Rodeo – Burning The Ground: DjPaulT's 80's and 90's Remixes

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1986

“Everything I’m Not” is a 1986 single by American band Beat Rodeo from New York City. The band’s sound has been described as Country, Rock, alternative, and blue-eyed soul with some thrown in. The single was produced by Scott Litt who produced six albums for R.E.M. in the late 1980s and early to mid-1990s during the band’s most successful period.

Although “Everything I’m Not” got some airplay at college stations, none of Beat Rodeo’s albums or singles were hits, and IRS dropped them from the label; the band broke up soon after that.

“Everything I’m Not” was taken from the band’s second and final LP Home in the Heart of the Beat. There was not a music video produced for this single.
