Edward Rogers

Edward Rogers is a British-born singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who grew up in Birmingham, England, before moving to New York City during the British Invasion era. Originally a garage-rock drummer, he reinvented himself in the 1990s as a singer and songwriter, drawing heavily on the sounds of 1960s and 1970s British beat and rock music, with influences like The Zombies, The Kinks, and Kevin Ayers. Over the past two decades, Rogers has released several solo albums praised for their blend of Brit Rock charm and thoughtful songwriting, including *Glass Marbles*, which received acclaim as a "sumptuous treat" from start to finish and evokes nostalgic stories from his youth.

In addition to his solo career, he has been part of projects like Sunday Fables and Bedsit Poets, with the latter scoring a Canadian radio hit despite the band’s true English roots. Edward Rogers is also known for his collaborative work, including a partnership with George Usher, and for keeping the British-New York musical connection alive through radio shows like “Atlantic Tunnel” on WFMU and Totally Wired Radio in the UK. He continues to release music that celebrates his cultural heritage while bringing it to modern audiences with warmth and authenticity.
