Brendan Rogers Brendan Rogers is emerging on the burgeoning folk scene with an impassioned set of widely-influenced folk songs. His rousing vocals are complimented by an accompaniment of strings, woodwind and brass. Appearances at Great Escape, Lovebox and Standon Calling in 2010 have put him firmly on course for a very successful 2011 where he played at Lovebox and Standon Calling again. In 2012 brendan has gone from strength to strentgh with the release of his third single and gigs at The Bedford and The Borderline in london, and also a number of major festivals throughout the year Brendan has been a late starter to the world of song writing and only took up singing at the age of 25. After 5 years of honing his song writing skills he moved back to London from Switzerland to pursue his passion and start to make a name for himself on the London circuit. In a very short space of time he recorded his first set of demos with Grammy award winner Dom Morley, who had approached Brendan after seeing him play a small solo show in South London.The demos quickly gained him the credibility to secure some great support slots with the likes of the Magic Numbers and touring artists from Canada - Madison Violet and Joel Plaskett. From here Brendan moved onto play the Gaymers stage at Lovebox 2010 and the main stage at Standon Calling 2010. Brendan first single was “Valentine” which has been produced by grammy winner Dom Morley (www.dommorley.com Amy Winehouse, Adele, The Police) and features Chris Higginbottom (www.chrishigginbottom.com Sunday Girl, Clare Maguire) on bass, Rob Marlarkey (www.robmullarkey.posterous.com Zero 7, Roisin Murphy) and mastered by Miles Showell. A further follow up single of "Show Me your Heart" and recently "Frozen Time" have benn released worldwide on all major download stores. |
