Another Sessions debutant arrives to the cove in early March. We’re very happy and excited to welcome… Hollie Rogers
“Song-writing reminiscent of Carole King and Joni Mitchell, amazing voice – I can’t believe she’s so young” – Nick Mason, Pink Floyd
“A magnificent and powerful voice” – Suzanne Vega
Hollie Rogers, is an alt-folk singer, songwriter and guitarist whose raw talent belies her years. Blessed with an incredibly powerful voice and songwriting ability, Hollie’s music has become increasingly popular in her hometown of Penzance, as well as in the South East where she now lives. Her live performances consistently receive outstanding reviews in local media, with regular reference to the level of maturity in her lyrics and songs. This positive feedback is also consistent from members of the public, as her airplay on BBC Introducing radio becomes more and more frequent.
Hollie first sparked some local interest aged just 15, when she recorded her first demo. Since then, she has become an accomplished guitarist who often plays with a full band, and with the release of her increasingly popular albums, ‘Let Me Be The Shadow Of Your Dog,” and ‘All That Fire,’ it is no surprise that she has been fortunate enough to support acts like Suzanne Vega, Midge Ure & Paolo Nutini. Hollie recently left a full-time teaching job to pursue a career in music, and having already won Horsham’s Battle Of The Bands competition, it’s no surprise that her fan base recently came together to crowdfund a new EP, produced by four-time grammy nominated James McMillan. The EP is due for release in April 2017.
