Singer/songwriter Jeff Rogers’ unmistakably soulful voice often evokes weighty comparisons to the past – whether that’s Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles or even Otis Redding…. however, his tone, range, phrasing, and sincerity, all make him unmistakably contemporary – and totally original.

Born in Bathurst, N.B. and raised in Ottawa, his parents discovered their son’s musical potential early on and encouraged him to develop it further by providing him with his first piano and music lessons. Since then, Jeff has taken up saxophone, guitar, and developed his unique vocal style to accompany his superb piano playing.

Jeff has toured internationally and is in demand session player. He has also been a member of renowned country/rock band The Cooper Brothers for over a decade.

“I’ve been writing with Dick Cooper for years now,” says Jeff. “…and it’s always fun to just hang out and bounce around ideas. I’m very lucky to have him as a friend, band mate, and co-writer.”

The culmination of this musical collaboration is Jeff ‘s highly anticipated new solo album Dream Job – to be released in Canada on October 27, 2023, and might be the boldest statement to date of Jeff’s vocal talent, his musical ability and his song writing gifts.

Recorded in the revered music mecca of Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Jeff is accompanied by some of the legendary musicians, including Kelvin Holly (Little Richard, Bobby Bland etc.), Clayton Ivey (The Staple Sisters, Thelma Houston), Justin Holder (Keb Mo’, Delbert McClinton) and Shonna Tucker (Booker T. Jones, Drive-By-Truckers).

“Muscle Shoals was groovy. The mojo in that place is undeniable. It’s a privilege to get to make music with veteran musicians, especially those with the portfolios such as Kelvin and Clayton possess…” Jeff says. “Class acts, who just walk in and do what they do like it’s no big deal. Very inspiring.”

The album is co-produced by Dick Cooper of The Cooper Brothers and features special guest appearances by Grammy Award winner, Colin Linden, and Juno Award winning singer, Kellylee Evans.

Jeff is super eager for everyone to hear it. “I can’t wait to get out there and play it!

Stay tuned. The story is just getting started.
