"Congratulations Rog, nice to see a home boy do good. I always knew you had it in you."
Joe Waller, Jackson Creek String Band
This award-winning performing songwriter is
a favorite among Florida Folk festivals and venues
through out Central Florida.
Winner of the 2008 Will McLean "Best New
Florida Song" and a 2007 Will McLean "top Ten"
pick, he was also a finalist in the 2007 South Florida Folk Songwriter competition. His songs
about miles of coastline, haunting wetlands, unique wildlife, colorful politicos & people, has all
the grit and funk that makes up everyday life. His
interesting twist and good natured rants provides
something for every listener.
"Rog Lee is Old Florida's unofficial bard. Lee combines down-home guitar picking, a grizzled and
soulful voice, a sly sense of humor and a strong environmentalist consciousness to create his folk songs. Lee's songs evoke smiles, sometimes a melancholy sigh--sometimes both at the same time."

Finalist
Song of the Year 2008
"With his unique stage presence, good
voice and skillful guitar playing, Rog Lee
captured the packed house with his extremely well crafted original song.Humorous
and yet profound, “Florida,” a song by Rog Lee expresses his feelings
regarding the
over development of his home state. Rog has other well crafted extremely
entertaining original songs. It was by far the most memorable and compelling song of
the evening and other con
certs."

Rog's gift is in his writing. His music themes remind us of what makes us special.
His love of the environment, his home and his family come through in his words and music.
I have listened to many in our community who make wonderful music, but Rog's is special.
He is our community's troubadour.” /p
