Howdy! Thanks for stopping by. I’m Roxie Rogers, a native Texan residing in Nashville, TN since 2001. I have traveled all over the world singing and performing original music from my albums including “Try Your Wings” (2003), “Jump Start” (2005), “Don’t Change a Thing” (2007), “Jazz Train” (2010), “Live at the Metropolitan Room” (2012) and “Crazy Puzzle” (2015).
In addition to songwriting and performing, I also design and make costumes for theatrical groups and historical societies, as well as custom home decor and upholstery for individuals.
While reading, hit PLAY and enjoy some fine background music!
Roxie Rogers’ NEW English Folk Album “Sceptered Isle Celebration” is now available!
This is my new CD – the first recordings – with the fabulous Daniel Dennis (musician & engineer exordinaire) and Eamon McLoughlin on fiddle. It’s all English Folk Music, which I love! Enjoy!
