(RE-SCHEDULED FROM JULY 30) Barely out of high school, Garnet Rogers was on the road as a full-time working musician with his older brother, Canadian folk music legend Stan Rogers. Together they formed what has come to be accepted as one of the most influential acts in North American folk music.
Since then, Garnet Rogers has established himself as One of the major talents of our time. Hailed by the Boston Globe as a charismatic performer and singer, Garnet is a man with a powerful physical presence close to six and a half feet tall with a voice to match. With his smooth, dark baritone (Washington Post) his incredible range, and thoughtful, dramatic phrasing, Garnet is widely considered by fans and critics alike to be one of the finest singers anywhere. His music, like the man himself, is literate, passionate, highly sensitive, and deeply purposeful. As memorable as his songs, his over-the-top humor and lightning-quick wit moves his audience from tears to laughter and back again.He has been featured on numerous television and radio programs, including The Country Beat, Morningside, and All Things Considered.
For the past couple years Garnet has regaled audiences with short previews of his memoir chronicling travels with Stan. The long-awaited book is now bound and printed and ready for sale. Pick up your copy tonight, and enjoy readings and songs by the author.
