Randy Rogers Band biography

American Country band, Randy Rogers Band is originally from Cleburne, Texas consisting of Brady Black, Geoffrey Hill, Les Lawless, Jon Richardson and Randy Rogers.

The band was first formed in 2000 by Randy Rogers, who had grown up playing music since the age of 6. In 2000 the band released their debut album entitled “Live At The Cheatham Street Warehouse” which was recorded at the Cheatham Street Warehouse in San Marcos, Texas. By 2002 the band signed with independent record label, Downtime, and released “Like It Used To Be.” The band started to tour more of Texas outside of San Marcos.

Two year after the release of “Like It Used To Be” Randy Rogers Band released their second album entitled “Rollercoaster” which produced two minor entries on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts in early 2005. The band then signed with Mercury Nashville Records and released “Just A Matter of Time,” an album that peaked at number 8 on the US Country Charts. Led off by the single “In My Arms Instead,” the band released their self-titled album on 23 September 2008.

The band’s fifth album, “Burning The Day,” was released in 2010 and the lead off single, “Too Late For Goodbye,” debuted at number 55 on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. The following album, “Trouble,” which was released on 30 April 2013, contained the band’s first single to enter the Billboard Top 40 Chart.

Live reviews

Country music is a genre often known for having standalone performers however the Randy Rogers Band are ready to break this convention. Although the operation does focus around lead vocalist Texas born Randy Rogers, each member is equally revered and considered when it comes to the operation and are not simply backup performers.

As you would imagine, these guys have a great rapport onstage and clearly enjoy playing live together. They really thrive on the energy given by the crowd too and as they cheer and jump, the band reciprocates with equal enthusiasm and vigour. They really are skilled as musicians and run through their discography with ease, stopping upon the hits including 'Kiss Me in the Dark' and 'Down and Out' so the audience has chance to clap and stomp along with the twanging country beats. They thank the gathered fans sincerely and do the band introductions before closing on the lively 'Trouble Knows My Name' which is met with approving roars from below.
