Breakfast in America
Tour - Brussels,
Belgium Review
MusicZine, May
17, 2013, Gerrit Van
De Vijver
"This
is music in its
simplicity. No
frills and no
gimmicks. Just an
angelic voice that
effortlessly scales
the storm with the
most widespread
octaves, accompanied
by pure
instruments.
Hodgson still has
that wonderful
unlimited vocal
range!
'The
Breakfast in America
Tour" brings us the
soundtrack of our
lives. Fortunate
phenomenon!"

Siegener

2013
"There's a
touch of magic in
the quickly
exhausting air. It
feels as though the
KulturPur tent has
never been as
packed before. The
sound is full and
good and the opener
fits like the trees
fit in the
forest surrounding the
"Giller": "Take the
Long Way Home".

Theatre, Sydney
The AU Review, Apr
5, 2013, Natalie
Salvo
"[Hodgson]
put on stellar show
and crammed it with
hits and other
precious gems from
his large back
catalogue. At over
two hours it’s fair
to say that Roger
Hodgson and band had
given much more than
just a little bit.
They’d given a lot
and then some…"

Hodgson Interview
Rip It Up, Apr 4,
2013, Robert Dunstan
"And they’re
songs that have
stood the test of
time. Not only for
the audience but
also for me because
I know that I am
enjoying playing
them now even more
than I did when I
was with Supertramp.
And it’s funny
because I now have a
much greater
appreciation for
them as songs."

“I look out and
see people smiling
and crying. I see
couples hugging each
other. I see four
generations, from 50
plus people to
teenagers
discovering the
music for the first
time. For me, as a
human being, let
alone a musician, to
have something that
I’ve done to share
with people that
gives so much in so
many different ways
is what inspires me
to keep touring.”

Mike Sweet,

there’s the rub;
memory and music.
Most of the audience
first heard these
songs as twenty-somethings
or younger, in
seemingly simpler,
more innocent days.
Their response to
the songs and their
author – is that of
a chance meeting
with a long lost
friend."

And I think we've only
scratched the surface of
possibilities that we
reserve the music to heal
and encourage, and inspire.
In fact, this is when I have
let the love of singing and
music that makes its magic

Soundspike Q & A:
Roger Hodgson
Soundspike, Nov 5,
2012, John Voket
"It's funny
today, because it's
rare that people sit
down for 40 minutes
and listen to a
whole album. But
they do at stage
shows, so in the
show now I'm always
trying to craft the
best listening
experience for the
environment I'm
walking into. If I
walk into a theater,
I may play one kind
of show. And if I'm
walking into a
festival, it will be
another kind of set.
I look to see if
people are standing
or sitting -- really
trying to tune into
what is going to
give them the
richest experience
for that two hours I
am entertaining
them."

"I
obviously did learn
a lot about myself,
because now on stage
I’m a whole

person I was in back

can’t stop me now.
I’m talking, joking,

Roger Hodgson's
songwriting secret:
'I wrote them when I
was alone'
The
Star-Ledger, Oct 26,
2012, Mark Voger
"It never ceases to
amaze me, really,
what different songs
have meant to
people. I hear
everything from
'They saved my life
during my teen
years' to 'We fell
in love to the
songs.' Or they used
the songs at their
weddings. The thing
that amazes me is
the depth of
connection people
have with these
songs."

"I was
fortunate enough to
see Hodgson when he
played the Borgata
in August. The songs
really do sound
fabulous. But there
was something more.
There is an inner
light that comes
through Hodgson,
both when he plays
and when he
interacts with the
audience. It at once
speaks of
tranquility and a
gentle kindness."
