Randy Rogers Band et Pat Green

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.

Green spent his youth growing up in San Antonio, and his love of music grew under the influence of his father, a former Air Force Officer and stage actor. Whilst attending Texas Tech University, Green began performing at local bars and clubs, whilst loaning money from his parents to record a number of self released albums locally.

After being fired by his stepfather from his job as a fuel wholesaler, Green was forced to fully commit to music and was shortly spotted by country legend Willie Nelson, whom he joined on tour. After playing Nelson’s annual 4th July picnic in 1998, Green started to gain national recognoition, and was swiftly snapped up by Universal.

In 2001, he released his debut album “Three Days” but it was his sophomore effort, 2003’s “Wave on Wave” that brought Green his first taste of major success. The title track of the album reached number 3 on the Billboard Country chart, and the album was certified gold. The following year, Green recorded and released his third studio album “Lucky Ones” which was also a chart success. It was his final album with Universal. During the span of his first three albums, Pat Green toured with some of country’s renowned artists, such as Keith Urban and Kenny Chesney.

Green moved to BNA Records, releasing his first project with them, his fourth studio album, “Lucky Ones” in 2004. He released a further two albums with them up to 2009, with all three of his BNA albums reaching the Billboard top ten. His most recent album, entitled “Songs We Wish We’d Written II” was released in 2012 on Sugar Hill Records.

Outside of his musical output, Green has released a photo book, called “Pat Green's Dance Halls & Dreamers”, which contains various pictures of Green at various shows with other country stars.
