Roger has been playing keyboards, both acoustic and electronic, for most of his life. His earliest musical memory is listening to his mother play piano as a young boy. She taught him to play the piano, beginning a long musical journey which lead through both sacred and secular contexts: worship-music (traditional + contemporary), original bands, accompanying, songwriting, teaching and playing almost any instrument with a keyboard. 

Roger formerly played in the RAF Salon Orchestra (UK) which saw him play for many VIP audiences including members of the Royal Family. Since moving to Australia, Roger has been involved with reception/event bands such as the Baker Boys Band, show bands such as Yacht Rock Revival and accompanying various local icons including Kate Ceberano. Toto’s music has a special place in Roger’s heart since playing some of their early songs with his first band as a teenager back in the UK. He especially appreciates their unique blend of melodic rock with classical, jazz and other influences, and the unique keyboard sounds and styles of Steve Porcaro, David Paich and Greg Phillinganes. Favourite Toto albums: Toto IV, Falling in between, Mindfields, Hydra.
