biographical info
NATHAN ROGERS
The weight of that surname (think Rogers folk/roots singers) is enough to earn Nathan Rogers a preliminary buzz, but after checking out Nathan’s razor-sharp brand of folk rock, it becomes obvious that the 25 year-old would have EARNED himself a name even without the surname. Overcoming that alone would be enough for Nathan to become a postscript but with one foot planted firmly in folk music traditional roots, and the other stepping proudly into its dynamic and incendiary future, Nathan performs tunes that are rife with insight and blazing with purpose.

WHAT DO THE CRITICS THINK?
"Man, CAN HE SING!!" - Mitch Podolak, founder of the Wpg. and Van. Folk Festivals.
"Nathan's voice is aging like fine wine, inching closer to his father's rich baritone. All I can really say is that Nathan Rogers does more than play songs and tell stories for you, he provides you with an experience you'll never forget." - Broose Tulloch, CKUW
