Born and raised in St. John’s, Roger has been entertaining audiences for 50 years, having garnered some regional and national recognition. Although primarily known for blues performances Roger has accompanied or worked with countless musical luminaries, from Emile Benoit and ‘Honeyboy’ Edwards to Pinetop Perkins and Tommy Hunter. On a regional level, Roger has close musical relationships with Anita Best, Sandy Morris, Wade Pinhorn and Tanya Alexander and the late Ron Hynes and Denis Parker to name a few. Some of Roger’s most recent performances included a tour of the East coast of the island in a tribute to Eric Clapton, an appearance in the annual ‘Feast of Cohen’ and a Last Waltz tribute. Semi retired, Roger continues to expand an already extensive repertoire of songs and styles and appear on a limited basis, primarily with Sandy Morris, in select venues.
Sandy Morris known to his musical friends as “the easternmost guitar player in North America” is an accomplished and multi-talented musician, producer, and engineer based in St. John’s, Newfoundland. Picking up his first guitar at the age of 15, Morris has made his living as a versatile and ingenious performer since 1965. An original member of the legendary Wonderful Grand Band, his more recent collaborations include Rasa (with Erin Best), and an eclectic musical duo with Roger Howse. Sandy Morris has contributed his own compositions, his performances, and his musical expertise to film and television projects for more than 60 years. His credits include serving as musical director or producer for Land and Sea, Violet, Tommy, East Coast Music Awards, and Codco, among many other projects. In addition to his own projects and featured appearances, he continues to perform with numerous other musicians on their recordings and live performances.
