Roger Wilson


	Roger Wilson

Roger Wilson is a singer, fiddler, guitarist, songwriter and folk musician. He is a widely respected figure on the folk and acoustic music scene, both in Britain and around the World. To many he is best known as a former member of The House Band, with whom he was fiddle player and singer for five years, and for his collaborations with Martin Carthy (Wood, Wilson, Carthy), Kate Rusby (the Concert Party), Pete Morton (Urban Folk) and John Tams (The Royal National Theatre).

As a solo performer, Roger is well established on the folk scene - captivating audiences with his voice and musical dexterity. At one of Roger's current gigs you can expect to hear a diverse mixture of folk songs, original songs, covers, adaptations, and the occasional funky fiddle tune.

"Roger Wilson is a highly talented fiddle player and singer/songwiter. He is impressive not only for his extraordinary talent as a songwriter and musician, but as a brilliant and passionate interpreter of traditional and contemporary material, notably for his memorable rendition of Hey Joe by the late great Jimi Hendrix. Roger uses the charged combination of fiddle and voice to full effect to convey the emotion of traditional songs. His enthusiastic playing and love of his craft are inspiring."
