By age 11, Randy Rogers was writing his own songs and learning chords on the guitar. After some time spent in a backing band, Rogers decided that he wanted to front his own group, and soon he and some friends from college formed the Randy Rogers Band, releasing their debut album, Live at Cheatham St. Warehouse, recorded in San Marcos, Texas. In 2002, their first studio album, Like It Used to Be, came out, followed by 2004’s Rollercoaster, which featured the by now solidified lineup of Geoffrey Hill on guitar, Jon Richardson on bass, Brady Black on fiddle, and Les Lawless on drums. The next year, they released Live at Billy Bob’s Texas and also signed to major label Mercury Nashville, which issued Just a Matter of Time in 2006. Rolling Stone magazine ranked them alongside such artists as U2 and the Stones in its list of Top Ten Must-See Artists in the summer of 2007. They grossed 2.5 million in touring for the year, a staggering figure. They followed that banner year by releasing a self-titled album in 2008, followed by more extensive touring. They moved over to MCA Nashvile for 2010’s Burning the Day, which was produced by Paul Worley and preceded by the single “Too Late for Goodbye.” More recently, they released Watch This in 2016. RRB continues to hit the road and tour with monster success.
