A Conversation with Roger Hodgson

 

Mike Ragogna: Roger, Crime Of The Century is forty years old, congratulations on that and for co-creating such an iconic album. So you and Rick Davies wrote the songs separately though you were both credited as the songwriters, kind of like the Lennon/McCartney arrangement.

Roger Hodgson: Right. Obviously, the album was a special album, but there's also been so much mystery and misperception around Supertramp for all these years. I thought, "What would be newsworthy and interesting to people and also clear up some of the misperceptions?" What I really reflected on was that when Rick and I first met, we used to collaborate on the songwriting, and at that time we had a third musician who handled all the lyrics, Richard Palmer-James. When he left, Rick and I began writing separately. We evolved and changed and grew and by the time of Crime... we had actually each come into our own as songwriters and composers and I think you'll agree that we both separately wrote some pretty substantial compositions. But for me, personally, I was once again writing songs alone, which for me has always been a key for writing more personal and effective compositions. Obviously, since I picked up the guitar when I was twelve, I had done that. But there's this misperception because of the writers' credit that Rick and I wrote these songs together and that is really the misperception that unfortunately a lot of the public still have. The truth is that whoever sang the lead voice on the song really wrote the song.
 

MR: Were these songs expressing your personal thoughts at the time or were you being more objective and writing towards a concept?

RH: No, I've never been able to write to order like that. My songs have always been very personal, very autobiographical and really reflective of what's been going on inside me. "Dreamer," I was a consummate dreamer at that point. I was a young man with many dreams and when I wrote the song "Dreamer" it exploded out of me one day as I was sat at the Wurlitzer piano for the first time alone in a room. I started playing and this song just erupted out of me. Then "Hide In Your Shell" was very autobiographical. At the time, I was feeling very alone, I had a lot of questions but I was also getting into a lot of personal growth in myself. I had just turned vegetarian, my spiritual quest was coming on really strongly and it was not really understood by those around me, both in the band and out. It was a really hard time, and I did "hide in my shell" a lot. The songs are very autobiographical.

Excerpt from the article:
 

  Don’t feel bad if the name “Roger Hodgson” doesn’t mean anything to you. As a founding member and main songwriter for the 1970s progressive rock band Supertramp, it was Hodgson’s idea to disappear into the group. It was a noble thought.
  Bands are made up of individual personalities, and it was not normal then (it still isn't) to avoid promoting those personalities. Even as Supertramp grew to be one of the biggest bands in the world, the names of the individual members weren't exactly household. But anybody who was listening to the radio between 1974 and 1983 knew the songs. "Dreamer," "School," "Give a Little Bit" and "The Logical Song," to name a few, were instantly recognizable as Supertramp songs.
  Hodgson wrote eight of Supertramp's 10 biggest hits, but only diehard fans knew who he was. Hodgson, who left Supertramp in 1983, has spent a good part of the last 30 years trying to make a name for himself. Hodgson and his band bring their Breakfast in America tour to the Honeywell Center in Wabash on Tuesday, November 4 at 7:30 p.m.
  Hodgson's wanting anonymity within Supertramp grew from his desire to let the songs speak for themselves. And they did. Drawing in on personal experience, Hodgson wrote from his heart about where those experiences took him emotionally and spiritually.

Brazil's TV Program 'Em Movimento'
at Roger Hodgson's show in Vitória

 
 

Enjoy this video of Roger's concert at Arena Vitória from Brazil's TV program, "Em Movimento". There were plenty of smiles and joyful faces all around -- a very fun time was had by all! An approximate English translation is posted below.

~
 

PART 1

(Reporter): - It’s difficult not to recognize any of these songs! This week Vitória received a visit from Roger Hodgson.  The “Em Movimento” went to meet with the audience from Vitória for the founder of the legendary band Supertramp.

(Reporter): Camila is here, and her mother came with her to the concert, too.  

(Camila Pessoa - child): - Well, my mother went to the One Direction concert and now she brought me to hear this music!

(Cláudia Pessoa - mother): I spent many hours standing, at least here she is seated!

(Reporter): If there is a parent who wants to give a good example to his/her child, Otávio gives an advice:

(Otávio): I think this is the way: a lot of music played in the home generates love for music by the family.

(Reporter): More than 30 years after these songs became successful, they continue to touch people!

(Betina Lima): It is good to remember, to revive!

(Reporter):  The rule.

(Ruy Lima): The songs have lot of passion, a great deal of understanding of love, and so on.

(Reporter):  If understanding what Roger Hodgson sings in English gets difficult, booklets with Roger’s songs translated into Portuguese were handed to the audience. Although there was nothing Moacir didn’t already know, as he knows all the words.

(Moacair Lino): When he says it is raining, he’s not talking about the actual rain. It’s rain of happiness. It’s what one needs to live! Dream, happiness, dream.

(Reporter):  The dream lasted. Roger came back to stage three times for encores and the audience kept asking for more!

(Reporter):  While the audience keeps asking for more, we finish our show today with more images of Roger Hodgson’s concert in Vitória. 

PART 2

(Reporter): Roger Hodgson’s voice did not disappoint his fans.  He sang his greatest Supertramp hits, along with the people of Vitória singing too!

SUPERTRAMP 
CRIME OF THE CENTURY 
DECEMBER 9, 2014

2-CD DELUXE EDITION / 3-LP 180 gm BOX SET / DIGITAL EQUIVALENTS

Featuring the cream of Rick Davies’ and Roger Hodgson’s songwriting, Crime of the Century was the first of the many peaks in Supertramp’s illustrious career; an album that had everything to prove, full of tunes that effortlessly straddled the world of pure pop and progressive rock. The LP eventually peaked at Number 4 on the UK charts and saw the band for the first time on the US Top 40. It was the music and the album’s cinematic sonic qualities that accounted for its impact. 

Crime of the Century is not only one of Supertramp’s greatest works, but one of the most highly regarded recordings of 70s rock music. Released in 1974, it put the band on the map after three years of struggle. With the unmistakable blend of the two songwriters – Davies' and Hodgson’s – work, it married the sweetness of Hodgson’s ‘Dreamer’ – the band's first big hit single – with the grit of Davies’ similarly beloved ‘Bloody Well Right.’ In ‘School,’ ‘Rudy,’ and the title track, the band – Davies, Hodgson, John Helliwell, Bob Siebenberg, and Dougie Thomson – helped define what would soon be known as ‘Adult Oriented Rock.’ This was – and is – not just an album that showed Supertramp's increased maturity, but a timeless gem crammed with incredible melodies and thoughtful lyrics.

"You made me relive so many fond memories of my teens years by listening to your songs. You exceeded my expectations. You are truly a legend and I must say I was profoundly touched by your humility and gentle personality. The orchestra was magical, thank you, merci, for such a memorable evening.
Your music will forever be eternal."


"This performance was jaw dropping. It was like turning the clock back 25 years. Roger's voice was as it was in Supertramp's heyday. The arrangements were superb, as was the orchestra and choir. On more than one occasion, the hair literally stood up on my arms and neck, especially during "School".
If you are a fan of Supertramp, do not miss this tour."


"Just wanted to thank Roger and his crew of musicians for such a great show. It was the best concert I have ever been to and my husband says the same. Thank you coming back after so long and putting on such a high quality, energetic and uplifting experience. You make the world a better place not just with your music but with your dialogue and communications with your audience.

ROGER HODGSON, Formerly of SUPERTRAMP,
Set for Fall Tour


Description:
 

Roger Hodgson, legendary vocalist and singer-songwriter from Supertramp, is heading back to North America for a series of fall dates. Following extensive tours of Europe and South America, Hodgson kicks off his North American tour on Nov. 4th in Wabash, Indiana. 

Hodgson co-founded the progressive rock band Supertramp in 1969 and was with them for 14 years. He helped define a generation of progressive rock and wrote and sang Supertramp’s globally successful and enduring anthems such as “Breakfast in America,” “Give a Little Bit,” “Take the Long Way Home,” “The Logical Song,” “Dreamer,” “It's Raining Again,” “School,” and “Fool's Overture” – songs that helped the band sell well over 60 million albums.

Hodgson is recognized as one of the most gifted composers and lyricists of our time. He has twice been recognized by ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers) for his songs being in the top played songs in their repertory, proving that they have indeed stood the test of time.

Accompanied by a four-piece band, Roger continues to perform all his hits that he recorded with 
Supertramp plus other classics - such as “Child of Vision,” “Hide in Your Shell,” “Sister Moonshine,” “Even in the Quietest Moments,” plus favorites from his solo albums - “Only Because of You,” “Lovers in the Wind,” and “In Jeopardy” - many of which can be found on his current CD release, Classics Live.

Uniting generations, Hodgson is transporting baby boomers back to their youth while giving younger concertgoers a taste of why his heartfelt songs have endured.  North American audiences are once again preparing to experience the magic and spirit that Hodgson created with Supertramp.

Roger Hodgson North American Tour Dates:
November 4 - Wabash, IN - Honeywell Center
November 6 - Detroit, MI - MotorCity Casino Hotel
November 7 - Niagara Falls, NY - Seneca Niagara Falls Casino and Resort
November 8 - Ridgefield, CT - Ridgefield Playhouse
November 9 - Bethlehem, PA - Sands Bethlehem Event Center 
November 11 - Huntington, NY - The Paramount
November 14 & 15 - Rama, ON - Casino Rama – On Sale August 20

“Remarkably, the humble musical legend is back and his signature voice sounds stronger than ever… to see and hear Roger Hodgson in concert today is simply to experience a sort of musical homecoming.” Rolling Stone 

This is the real deal: a legendary music man, in brilliant form and shimmering presence, supported by a tight, terrific band. An evening with Roger Hodgson will raise your standards of concert-going.” Huffington Post 

“Beautiful. That’s the word that just keeps popping into your head when watching Roger Hodgson perform.  Whether it’s the melodic complexity of his songs, the harmonies he weaves with his band, the lyrics that sweep you away or his ability to still command the incredible upper range of his voice…”
Classic Rock Music Examiner

Check out his latest release, ‘Classics Live’. This spectacular collection of Roger’s hit songs from concerts recorded around the world is available through his Store and iTunes.

Enjoy this video montage of Hodgson performing some of his timeless classics.

For a list of stations and schedules, visit

Roger shares about starting to play the guitar at age 12 - "The moment this guitar got into my hands, my life changed forever."

How he got his start in the music industry - "...The Music Publisher liked what he heard, signed me up, and put me in a studio in London, which was my first time in a recording studio with session musicians, one of which was a man called Reg Dwight who later became known as Elton John." 

The most important thing in his life - "(My spiritual compass) has sustained me. It still does today and it's obviously the most important thing in my life because I believe that's what life is for, to really find out who we are as a soul. As a soul, that is where we are really connected to God." 

There is so much more! Enjoy Acoustic Storm's in-depth exclusive interview.

In 1977, Fresno, CA radio station KYNO was celebrating Roger Hodgson's Give a Little Bit. Roger wrote and composed many songs, including Give a Little Bit, before he co-founded Supertramp at the age of 19. This eternal classic from the Even in the Quietest Moments album went to the top of the charts around the world for several weeks during the spring and summer of 1977. Roger has often said that this is why he continues touring - to Give a Little Bit of his love to the world.

"This song is very special to me because its simple message is timeless and is needed even more today than it was when I wrote it. It's all about reaching out and giving and caring."  ~ Roger Hodgson

Roger has donated his time and signature song to help raise funds for Tsunami Relief, Red Cross, UNICEF, World Vision, Hurricanes Katrina and Sandy efforts, United Way, Make a Wish Foundation, and other worthy causes. He receives dozens of requests every year from charities across the globe requesting the use of his song.

Be sure to see Roger perform his classic live this year!
All announced tour dates may be found on the Tour Page or at Facebook.com/RogerHodgson/events.

Enjoy Roger's performance of his timeless classic song, "Breakfast in America," and his interview on Шоуто на Слави (Slavi's Show) on June 30 in Sofia, Bulgaria. Slavi is the "David Letterman of Bulgaria." Yesterday while on the TV show, we learned from the interview that Roger did with Slavi that his songs he recorded with Supertramp made it over the Iron Curtain, and along with bands such as Pink Floyd and Genesis, the music gave the people here hope for a better life and freedom. We hear this sentiment voiced all over the world and see how deeply people identify with Roger’s music and his personal life experiences. He certainly has a way of putting into words what many go through in their life.

We invite you to leave a comment in your native language directly on the show's site. You can comment through your Facebook. Share with the people of Bulgaria and those around the world what Roger's music means to you.

ROGER HODGSON REVIEW BY CBP [Kursaal in San Sebastian, 1600 people]

 

Please note - this may be a rough translation and may contain some inaccuracies.

The Kursaal, what a venue! And what an audience! According to Anna Vadillo, of Get In, who brought the legendary singer and lyricist of the songs of Supertramp to San Sebastian, the audience has never been so hot! From "Take the Long Way Home," starting at 9:03 p.m., the venue was boiling hot. A middle-aged audience came to celebrate their idol, the "maker of the songs" of Supertramp.

Roger Hodgson, 64, is of course the voice of Supertramp but it is also a great arranger. His songs are between rock and progressive rock, beautifully lit this minimalist stage are re-orchestrated, so melodic, and the arrangements are precise, and with an excellent drummer who sets the pace. "Death and a Zoo" of his more pop album "Open the Door" is monstrous. Must also mention "Lord is it Mine." Mister Roger, his unmistakable voice all his, is sometimes with keyboard, piano, or guitar. The sound is super clean, magnified by the excellence of the Kursaal Auditorium because it is first and foremost a living classical music venue, which has an incomparable sound.

I just came home from your concert in Belo Horizonte, and I've always been a fan of yours, throughout my 25 years. I was there two years ago, when you first came, and today, again, I was simply mesmerized. I wish more musicians were as complete as you are, playing such great music, with such great voice and harmony, and lyrics beyond comparison with anything ever made. Your songs truly touched our hearts and souls, as does your kindness on stage, always smiling, always so tender. It is wonderful for me, even though I wasn't even alive at the Supertramp years, to be able to be in touch with your music, and to have the enormous pleasure of seeing you on stage twice in a lifetime.

Roger Hodgson gives Chandler audience a lot
 


April 26, 2014

By Ted Hansen

Welcome. As an interjection, it would have been an appropriate greeting for the audience to give Roger Hodgson and his band upon their return to Arizona, Friday night, April 25, 2014 at the Wild Horse Pass Casino Ovations LIVE! Showroom in Chandler, for the opening night of their 2014 “Breakfast in America” World Tour. But when Roger Hodgson performs, welcome is the feeling he gives to his audience.

Seeing Roger Hodgson in concert gives one the warm, comfortable, feel found when reuniting with a long lost friend. Whether it’s the musings of a 19 year old Hodgson that wrote “Breakfast in America,” or the lovelorn Hodgson that composed “Give A Little Bit,” Hodgson’s lyrics have already opened up his feelings to the listener. Couple that with Hodgson’s easy going on stage demeanor and in between song insights and not only do you feel you know him, but, despite many years that may have gone by, that it was just yesterday that the two of you spoke. There is something special about opening nights. There is an extra camaraderie found in the reuniting of band members that flows over into reuniting with an audience as well. Granted, not everything will be perfect, but that just adds to the comfort of the experience. Despite a couple of botched moments, rather than worry about them, Roger and his band laughed them off. It was easy to understand that for Hodgson there was a certain degree of adjustment from “emptying my dishwasher last night to being here on stage.”  

The long standing ovation earned after “Fools Overture,” demanded an encore. The band obliged with the soft, slow tempo, “Two of Us,” found on Supertramp’s 1975 release “Crisis? What Crisis?” Once again Hodgson strummed on acoustic guitar, an instrument he continued with for the next song. The familiar chords that open “Give A Little Bit,” brought the audience to their feet and for the first time all night, the audience was in massive sing-a-long mode. Encouraged by the now openly enthusiastic crowd, Hodgson and company gave the gathering one final tune. With the wish that maybe the song “would bring some rain,” to the parched Arizona desert, the evening closed with the peppy, “It’s Raining Again.”

Those fortunate people that may have tickets for the future performances of Roger Hodgson’s 2014 “Breakfast in America” Tour might ask, so how was opening night? Was it wonderful, beautiful, magical?
It was bloody marvelous.

Roger Hodgson On Yes, Ringo And Supertramp: ‘The Time For A Reunion Has Passed’

 

October 23, 2013 9:49 AM


Did Supertramp fit into any genre? Were they rock? Pop? Prog-rock? Perhaps prog-pop? It’s tough to put a label on them that anyone will agree with. But what almost anyone would agree with is that the band’s music has stood the test of time, never really fitting in, but always sounding great. The band’s main songwriter and singer, Roger Hodgson, left the band three decades ago, but still tours on his own playing his most well-known songs. But it’s been 13 years since his last solo record. We thought it was about time we asked him about that, and a few other issues: namely, will Supertramp ever ride again, did Yes really ask him to join and what’s it like playing in Ringo Starr‘s band. Hodgson, by the way, is currently on the road (get tour info here) and is preparing to put out Classics Live 2

Ex Leader of Supertramp at Place Des Arts on October 17 and 18.

 

"Music is the Best Medicine" ~ Roger Hodgson

 

Echo Vedettes Article by Jean-Francois Brassard

 

Approximate English translation:  

 

As much as his songs are on everyone’s lips since the seventies, as much of his name is unknown. Roger Hodgson, the soul of Supertramp gone solo since 1984, is the creator of the anthems "Logical Song, " "Give A Little Bit," and "Take The Long Way Home" which he will sing at Place Des Arts on October 17 and 18. This is an Interview with a very talented writer, composer, singer and a true gentleman.  

 

Hi Jean-François, it's Roger. Even if I weren’t waiting for his call, he would not have to introduce himself. The voice of Roger Hodgson is as unique as his talent. It's from his adoptive California that the British born singer called us.  From his land of origin he kept his class, friendliness, and composure.  A few days before his two concerts he would give at Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier at Place Des Arts on October 17 and 18, he kindly answered our questions.

 

In 1969, with his friend Rick Davies, Roger Hodgson created Supertramp. Success came pretty quickly in their home country and in North America, first in Montreal then the rest of Quebec where they were warmly welcomed. As soon as their third album "Crime Of The Century" was released in 1974, we recognized their talent, but it would take Americans five more years with the release of "Breakfast In America" which made them popular around the world. And in 1983, after releasing "Famous Last Words," Roger would leave the group.   Since then, he has released five albums under his name.

ROGER HODGSON

 

London: Royal Albert Hall – 26 May 2013

 

The name Roger Hodgson may not be familiar to some, but his voice will be. His songs have filled the airwaves for over three decades, with his former band Supertramp. Billed as ‘The Breakfast In America Tour’, this was a night of classic Supertramp songs, mixed with selections from his solo work.

 

The venue was packed to capacity, and you could feel a real buzz amongst the audience as they awaited the beginning of the show. The band (David J Carpenter on bass, Bryan Head on drums, Kevin Adamson on second keyboard, while a special mention should go to Aaron MacDonald, providing vocals, whistles and some tremendous saxophone moments) took their places on stage before Roger arrived, seating himself at his keyboard. The hauntingly familiar harmonica introduction of ‘Take The Long Way Home’ began the show, and it was incredible how good Roger’s voice sounds – he has lost none of that sweet honesty in his delivery. Roger has a unique charm in the manner that he addresses the audience, feeling like he is talking to you directly. He even humorously berates two audience members who arrive late, claiming “You just missed the best song!”

 

The set is a wonderful mixture of Supertramp’s golden moments, including ‘School’ and the beautiful ‘Hide In Your Shell’, to lesser known solo efforts such as ‘In Jeopardy’. I was quite touched that Roger took the time to read out letters from his web page and dedicate a song to some of the people in attendance. The hall erupted with the familiar intro of ‘Breakfast In America’,and the truly wonderful ‘Logical Song’ brought us to the intermission.

 

The second half offered an emotional ‘Death And A Zoo’ which left myself and my partner with tears in our eyes – demonstrating the power of music in conjuring up an image! Roger offered insight to the stories behind his songs, switching between playing acoustic guitar, keyboards and piano. We were treated to an outstanding ‘Dreamer’, and a truly majestic ‘Fools Overture’ that had the hairs on my arms standing up. By the time ‘Give A Little Bit’ had started, the audience were on their feet and dancing, some even opened umbrellas for ‘It’s Raining Again’, which brought the show to an end. During the evening, Roger had spoken about the healing effect of music and of forgetting your troubles for an hour or two, and that is exactly what happened to the audience. For any difficult times in your life, you should be able to get a show like the one Roger Hodgson gave us – on prescription!

EXCERPT ~ It's Raining Again as Roger Hodgson delights Atlanta Botanical Gardens


August 19, 2013

By: Andrew Snook

 

Roger"Mesmerizing", "haunting", "beautiful", "magnificent" and "wonderful" were just some of the superlatives that fans used to describe Roger Hodgson's performance at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens on Sunday night.

 

On an evening when a steady drizzle fell, occasionally giving way to heavier showers, the Atlanta Botanical Garden hosted a crowd of about 2,000 who sat on the rapidly developing quagmire that had been the lawn, watching Roger Hodgson in concert. For those unfamiliar with the name, Hodgson wrote and sang some of the greatest musical hits of the 1970's when he was a driving force behind one of the biggest acts of that time, Supertramp.

 

Hodgson was in Atlanta as part of his "Breakfast in America" tour and despite the very wet lawn, the Atlanta Botanical Garden was the perfect location for this concert. This is one of the smaller venues on this tour and to be privileged enough to watch Hodgson and his band here was just wonderful. Hodgson provides an ethereal musical experience and the Atlanta Botanical Garden in the rain was the perfect environment for the evening's music.

ROGER HODGSON SINGER-SONGWRITER FORMERLY OF SUPERTRAMP RETURNS TO THE U.S. WITH BREAKFAST IN AMERICA TOUR

Legendary singer and composer brings shows stateside beginning August 11
in Costa Mesa, California, and gets set to launch
Classics Live 2 CD.

 

LOS ANGELES, CA, July 30, 2013—Following on the heels of sellout shows in Australia, the U.K., and Europe, Roger Hodgson formerly of Supertramp will return to the U.S. with his Breakfast in America Tour. A series of select dates start August 11 at the Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa, California, and will include at least eight other stops on both coasts. 

 

Concurrent with the tour, Hodgson has announced the forthcoming release of a new CD, Classics Live 2. The disc joins Classics Live 1 in the Hodgson catalog, which is available through his Store and iTunes.

Critically hailed as one of the most gifted composers and lyricists of our time, ironically many in the U.S. may not know the name Roger Hodgson, but would instantly recognize his voice and the classic Supertramp hits he wrote and sang: “Give a Little Bit,” Take the Long Way Home,” Dreamer,”The Logical Song,”It’s Raining Again,” and “Breakfast in America.”

 

Hodgson helped propel Supertramp to international superstardom in the 70’s with album sales of well over 60 million, including 1979’s stellar blockbuster, Breakfast in America, which alone sold upwards of 20 million copies. Timeless in nature, his songs have played on the radio continuously for more than thirty-five years. Now, in concert, Hodgson reignites memories and emotions with a heart-stirring voice that both critics and fans declare is sounding better than ever.

Uniting generations, Hodgson transports baby boomers back to their youth while giving younger concertgoers a taste of why his classic songs have endured. With his repertoire also including fan favorites such as “Child of Vision,”  “Fool’s Overture,” “Hide in Your Shell,” “Even in the Quietest Moments,” and “School,” audiences are once again experiencing the magic and spirit that Hodgson created with Supertramp. Accompanied by a four-piece band, Hodgson also performs favorites from his solo albums such as “Only Because of You,” “Lovers in the Wind,” and “In Jeopardy.”

 

“The power of the music was indisputable with many of the audience in tears of joy at the memories and emotions the songs evoked.  It was like seeing Supertramp back in their heyday.”  Evening Herald

 

“Frequently entertaining the audience with stories about the origins of his songs, Hodgson connects deeply with the fans in a way few stars of his stature do.”  San Diego Reader

 

“Remarkably, the humble musical legend is back and his signature voice sounds stronger than ever… to see and hear Roger Hodgson in concert today is simply to experience a sort of musical homecoming.” Rolling Stone 

"This is the real deal: a legendary music man, in brilliant form and shimmering presence, supported by a tight, terrific band. When you can catch a show, go. An evening with Roger Hodgson will raise your standards of concert-going."  Huffington Post

 

The Breakfast in America Tour U.S. dates are:

 

Aug 11 - Costa Mesa, CA - Pacific Amphitheatre

Aug 12 - Snoqualmie, WA - Snoqualmie Casino

Aug 18 - Atlanta, GA - Atlanta Botanical Garden

Oct 20 - New Bedford, MA - Zeiterion Theatre

Rochester Jazz Fest 2013: Paloma Reviews Roger Hodgson
 

Tonight I heard a different side of Roger Hodgson, the still unmistakable voice of Supertramp, at Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre. Hodgson didn’t talk much during his two hour, 22 song show, but when he did, it was in reference to writing song lyrics from deep within during times of personal challenges or struggles.
 

Hodgson was with a four-man band, and for “The Awakening,” Hodgson sang with the bass player and the winds player, and their well-blended voices offered a fresh insight into what the future may sound like.
The harmonics of Supertramp was certainly one aspect of its playing that I enjoyed, so when Hodgson said he’d like to record the song someday, my vote would be yes.
 

Hodgson did not seem to disappoint the audience filling the Eastman Theatre, several of whom (including me) carried original albums with them. He opened with “The Long Way Home” and played many favorites, including “Breakfast in America,” “The Logical Song,” “Dreamer,” “It’s Raining Again,” and a dancing-in-the-aisles version of “Give a Little Bit.”
 

As Eastman is generally my venue for covering the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, I put up a big cheer when Hodgson said he might like to come back to perform here with the RPO (perhaps for “Fool’s Overture” or, better still, an orchestral version of “Death and a Zoo?”). Last year, Sarah McLachlan performed with the RPO at CMAC, so I can imagine a collaboration for them with Hodgson.

Adelaide, AU ~  April 5, 2013 ~ Reflection by Lee
 

Roger opened the night himself without any earlier performer. He just walked on in behind a smile, sat down to his keyboard and pumped out a jaw-dropping Take the Long Way Home. I am not ashamed to say that during his next song School I wiped away a few tears. God sakes, I had to pull myself together, I’m a man.

 

The classics continued. He spoke humbly and gave his time generously between songs dedicating some to audience members for reasons varying from long distance travellers, birthday and even long-time fan support. He is the man I always expected him to be – warm and honest.
 

A special mention needs to be made of the four piece band. They are clearly great musicians with a wonderful understanding of the nuances and timing of the songs performed. This was particularly evident during the song Fool’s Overture performed after the interval and near the end of the two hour plus concert. Amazing stuff.
 

I am not a particularly Christian man however on this night heaven and earth rotated pretty close as Roger drew the breath of angels to deliver an ethereal performance unequalled in all my born days. Where does that voice come from?

I see now that in labeling the concert “Roger Hodgson and Special Guests” we were in fact, the special guests. Thank you Roger.
 

Lee
 

p.s. Standing at the stage front as the concert finished Roger reached down as he was leaving and shook my hand – very cool!

Cleaning for a Reason
 Roger Hodgson Honored for Support of
 Cleaning For A Reason




 

Cleaning for a Reason




 

  Roger Hodgson gives more than a little bit.
To the world, Roger Hodgson is one of the most gifted composers, songwriters, and lyricists of our time.

To the foundation, he’s someone who knows the difference one person or one organization can make when you just “give a little bit.” In 2012, Hodgson bestowed the rights to his song aptly named “Give a Little Bit” to Cleaning For A Reason, the foundation that makes a difference for women with cancer through free house cleanings.

Roger with Tom Heveron, Cleaning for a Reason Partner & President of Beachland Cleaning Service of Vero Beach, FL

   


View Cleaning For A Reason
Appreciation Award presentation:


 

In Hodgson’s own words, “It’s just one of those songs that has a profound yet beautiful and simple message–’give a little bit’ and show you care. I know it is giving to others that makes me happy. If we could all ‘give a little bit’ each day, we would make the world a better place.”;;;;
 

According to the singer’s manager Linda Tyler, “Roger Hodgson, cofounder of Supertramp, is the original singer/songwriter of Give a Little Bit, The Logical Song, Breakfast in America, Dreamer, Take the Long Way Home, School, It’s Raining Again, Fool’s Overture, and many more. Many people do not realize that although Roger and Supertramp’s other cofounder shared writing credit, they actually wrote and composed separately with each singing their own respective songs.”
 

Regarding Hodgson’s current projects, Tyler replied, “You can see Roger live in concert. He is currently on his world tour and selling out shows all over the globe in addition to receiving fantastic review from media and fans alike. Be sure to also visit Roger’s YouTube channel at http:www.youtube.com/MrRogerHodgson.”

Roger Hodgson brings Supertramp sound to Clearwater
 

By SEAN DALY

 

Times Pop Music Critic

 

There was nothing "logical" about Supertramp, of course. Even the band's chief braintrust, Roger Hodgson, will tell you that. Forty-four years after the British pop/rock/prog/jazz/klezmer/you-name-it band started confounding fans and this music critic alike, the group remains a head-scratcher to categorize, a merger of found sounds, kazoo zings and incongruous (but still pretty awesome) sax solos.

 

Were the boys trying to be difficult? Was the chaos planned?

 

"It was not by design, I can tell you that," laughs Hodgson, the 63-year-old composer of The Logical Song, Take the Long Way Home and Give a Little Bit. "Even though I've been influenced by many musicians over the years, I never tried to make music to fit into any category. When I lose myself in the sound, when I get my mind out of the way, that's when the music happens, that's when inspiration happens."

 

Hodgson bolted Supertramp 30 years ago; the creative, often incendiary spark with co-founder Rick Davies that drove the band to success also led to its fracture. But Hodgson adores his cuts with the old crew, and he'll play many of them — while robustly backed by a rock symphony — at Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater on Friday. About the live solo show, he says rather confidently: "It will be a highlight in people's concertgoing lives."

Roger Hodgson Adds Second Concert

 

By Popular Demand - Performing
October 17 & 18 at Place des Arts’ Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier

 

 
 

Due to overwhelming response from Montrealers, co-founder and original singer-songwriter from Supertramp, Roger Hodgson, will perform two concerts with his band at Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier on October 17 and 18, 2013 as part of his Breakfast in America world tour.
 

The legendary voice of Supertramp, will play Wilfrid-Pelletier for the ninth time in seven years!  In fact, his 2006 sold out concert there was the set for Roger’s #1 Multi-Platinum live DVD:
Take The Long Way Home – Live In Montreal.

 

Hodgson’s unique relationship with Montreal audiences that has lasted for close to 40 years amazes the artist.  Hodgson comments,  “I'm very pleased to be adding a second show at Place de Arts and that the love affair and long history I have with the people and the city of Montreal is still so much alive. I'm very excited for everyone to hear the band and the show I am bringing which I believe is the best ever. Audiences are going to be taken on a rich and memorable journey with many surprises.”  

Media Reviews
 

“..to the adoring fans who rise to their feet as Hodgson and his four-piece backing band take the stage with the FM radio staple "Take The Long Way Home," it might as well be 1979 all over again.”
Rolling Stone 

“This is the real deal: a legendary music man, in brilliant form and shimmering presence, supported by a tight, terrific band. When you can catch a show, go. An evening with Roger Hodgson will raise your standards of concert-going.” Huffington Post

“It has been nearly 30 years since Hodgson performed with Supertramp.  He certainly can lay claim to the best of the band's catalogue and Hodgson has one of the most impressive backing bands around. In some ways, they are even better than his former band mates in Supertramp.” Niagara Gazette

A
udience Reviews

Best concert I have ever seen and I have been to a lot. I am still singing, dancing, smiling and cannot get the amazing play list out of my head. Roger and his band are truly amazing. ” 

 

“So AWESOME! I have loved your music since I first saw Supertramp in 1976 at the Forum... Been a huge fan ever since! You touring again has been such a wonderful surprise ! Love it!!!”
 
 
“WOW – great show. That guitar just drove the crowd crazy when he strummed the opening to ‘Give A Little Bit’ during the encore.....a giant sing along ensued with everyone on their feet!!! What a great sound. His voice is still terrific.”

 
“…Your concert brought back memories, beautiful memories of great teenage feelings and fantastic pleasures. Having seen Supertramp a few times during the Golden Years, I knew that the band was a great.  But I always knew that the heart & soul of the band was you, and after tonight I will also say that your current band sounds better than Supertramp…”

On October 17 and 18, Roger and his band will take the stage to thrill fans with unforgettable songs such as Take the Long Way Home, The Logical Song,  Breakfast in America, Dreamer, School, Even in the Quietest MomentsIt's Raining Again, Fool’s Overture and Give a Little Bit

Roger Hodgson, Legendary Singer-Songwriter
formerly of Supertramp,

Returns to Montreal October 18 with the
Continuation of His Highly Successful
‘Breakfast in America’ Tour

 


Montreal has always been a city close to Roger’s heart, as evidenced in his DVD Take the Long Way Home – Live in Montreal  that was recorded at Place des Arts in 2006. Montrealers have embraced Roger as one of their most beloved artists, filling the venue time and time again since the filming of his only DVD to date.

 

"Frequently entertaining the audience with stories about the origins of his songs, Hodgson connects deeply with the fans in a way few stars of his stature do."  San Diego Reader

 

"The power of the music was indisputable with many of the audience in tears of joy at the memories and emotions the songs evoked.  It was like seeing Supertramp back in their heyday."  Evening Herald

 

"It was a love fest from the get go..."  Montreal Gazette 

 

"All these years I thought I was a Supertramp fan when actually I was and am a Roger Hodgson fan."  David Wild, Contributing Editor, Rolling Stone

 

Universally hailed as one of the most gifted composers and lyricists of our time, Roger Hodgson helped define a generation of progressive rock, and wrote and sang Supertramp’s globally successful and enduring anthems – timeless songs that helped the band sell well over 60 million albums to date. His unmistakable voice also propels Supertramp fan favorites that he created such as “Hide in Your Shell,” “Child of Vision,” "Don't Leave Me Now,” and “Lord is it Mine.”  In concert, Hodgson also delivers select songs such as “In Jeopardy” and “Lovers in the Wind” from his five solo album releases.

 

Hodgson’s latest CD, Classics Live, is available through iTunes or from RogerHodgsonStore.

 

In May 2012, Roger Hodgson was honored by the French Minister of Culture with a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters.  This decoration, one of the most prestigious in all of France, was established in 1957 to recognize significant contributions to the arts.

 

Uniting generations at his concerts, Hodgson transports baby boomers back to their youth and gives younger generations a taste of why his heartfelt songs have endured. Audiences are once again experiencing the magic and spirit that Hodgson created with Supertramp. Hodgson reflected, “I love performing these songs which continue to resound for me as a performer and for the fans.  My songs come from a very personal place inside me and they carry my beliefs and my dreams and my philosophy of life.  I understand the deep connection that fans have with my songs that have been a part of so many peoples’ lives around the world.”

 

ROGER HODGSON – “BREAKFAST IN AMERICA” at Place des Arts’ Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier, Friday, October 18.

 

TICKETS: VIP package available which includes sound check access, an autographed CD, and a seat in the first seven rows.

February 5, 2013—In the wake of Super Bowl XLVII, some will remember which commercials were the best as much as the game itself.  With this year’s ads prompting emotions ranging from laughter to tears, prime among them was a 30-second spot for Coca-Cola utilizing the song “Give a Little Bit” as its soundtrack – a song written and composed by Roger Hodgson and originally released in 1977 by Supertramp, the iconic rock band he co-founded. This new recording is Hodgson's latest version of his classic hit, which is now available on iTunes. His latest release Classics Live can be found on iTunes as well, or at www.rogerhodgson.com.

 

The Coca-Cola “Security Cameras” Super Bowl ad, which combined the sounds of “Give a Little Bit” with images of people engaging in acts of generosity and goodwill as captured by security cameras around the world, was the most watched post-game commercial on the NFL’s own website, with views exceeding a quarter-million. The spot prompted Hodgson to comment, "The images in the ad go well with the meaning of my song. It's just one of those songs that has a profound yet beautiful and simple message – ‘give a little bit’ and show you care. I know it is giving to others that makes me happy. If we could all ‘give a little bit’ each day, we would make the world a better place.”

 

Give a Little Bit” has been used to help raise support for many charities worldwide and remains a favorite of millions of Hodgson fans around the globe. It has become a unifying anthem that brings out the best in people whether it’s the 60,000 strong Wembley Stadium audience that rose to its feet to sing along with Hodgson at the Princess Diana tribute concert in 2007, or any of his other concerts that he gives around the world today – the song reminds us of the better part of ourselves and inspires us to express it.

 

A live version of “Give a Little Bit” is available on Roger's latest CD release, Classics Live - a spectacular collection of live performances from acoustic, band, and orchestra shows recorded on his 2010 world tour. Fans the world over have also been thrilled with the CD’s new versions of unforgettable hits such as “Take the Long Way Home,” “Give a Little Bit,” “Hide in Your Shell,” “Breakfast in America,” “Only Because of You," “Lord is it Mine,”  The Logical Song,”  “School,” “Dreamer,” “Two of Us,” and “It's Raining Again.” Hodgson will launch the latest leg of his ongoing Breakfast in America Tour on March 22 in Clearwater, Florida – with shows for 2013 spanning the US, Canada, Australia, the UK, and Europe.

 

Rolling Stone noted: “Remarkably, the humble musical legend is back and his signature voice sounds stronger than ever… to see and hear Roger Hodgson in concert today is simply to experience a sort of musical homecoming.”

Added the Huffington Post: “This is the real deal: a legendary music man in brilliant form and shimmering presence.”

 

For complete information on the Breakfast in America Tour visit the Tour page on Hodgson’s Website, or Events on Roger’s Facebook page.

 

Hailed as one of the most gifted composers and lyricists of our time, Hodgson helped define a generation of progressive rock, and wrote and sang Supertramp’s most globally successful and enduring anthems – timeless songs that helped the band sell well over 60 million albums to date. Audiences are once again experiencing the magic and spirit that Hodgson created with Supertramp. For more information on Roger Hodgson, click Bio.

Roger Hodgson, Legendary Singer-Songwriter formerly of Supertramp,

Announces Changes to ‘Breakfast in America’
Tour Schedule Due to Hurricane Sandy

 

Hodgson Joins Efforts to ‘Give a Little Bit’ to Red Cross

 

Roger Hodgson

 

Prompted by the damaging impact of Hurricane Sandy to the East Coast, legendary songwriter and vocalist ROGER HODGSON of the group Supertramp, announced several changes to the North American leg of his popular “Breakfast in America” tour, which resumes tomorrow, including fundraising for the Red Cross.

 

"We have been closely following the effects and recovery efforts from Hurricane Sandy and our sympathy goes out to all of those whose lives have been affected.” Roger Hodgson commented. “Knowing the challenges that many people are currently facing, we are working with each promoter to reschedule shows and to find ways to 'give a little bit' to help the local communities.”   

 

Hodgson’s song, “Give a Little Bit” was used this week during ABC TV’s “Day of Giving” telethon encouraging all of us to reach out to the victims of Hurricane Sandy by giving whatever we can to the Red Cross. Click here for the lyrics.

 

A portion of proceeds from Roger Hodgson’s Nov. 8 concert at Mayo Performing Arts Center in Morristown, NJ will be donated to the American Red Cross.

 

Tickets for all rescheduled shows will be honored on their new dates, and Hodgson will be offering a special bonus surprise at certain venues for current ticket holders!  So hold onto your tickets!


Roger Hodgson co-founded Supertramp in 1969. His current Breakfast in America Tour celebrates his band’s top selling album, which sold over 25 million copies and was #1 worldwide. The current tour, his first US tour with a band in 30 years, features all his self-penned hit songs - “The Logical Song,” “Breakfast in America,” “Give a Little Bit,”  “Dreamer,” “School,” “Take the Long Way Home,” “It's Raining Again,” and “Fool's Overture” and many more…. 

 

Click below to hear Roger Hodgson’s classic “Give a Little Bit,” which he has again offered to the Red Cross in support of Hurricane Sandy relief efforts, as he did with Hurricane Katrina and the 2004 Tsunami. The song captures a humanitarian spirit which at times like these, is an inspiring reminder of the difference we can all make by ‘giving a little bit’ to support these charitable organizations in their extraordinary relief efforts.

Roger Hodgson gives (more than) a little bit on stage ~ EXCERPT

 
 
Nov 2, 2012   |

Roger Hodgson at the keyboards.
 
Written by
Bill Nutt
For the Daily Record

 

The man who wrote and sang “Give a Little Bit” is feeling more than a little generous these days.


Roger Hodgson, whose distinctive tenor voice and introspective lyrics were signatures of the band Supertramp, has returned to performing after a hiatus of some 20 years. And, in his own words, he’s “having the time of (his) life.”


“It’s better now than it ever was,” says Hodgson. “I’m older and wiser. I feel I have more to give the audience. I don’t think I’ve ever sounded better, and I have to say that my band is the best band I’ve ever put together.”


Hodgson, who is playing two dates in New Jersey, finds himself in an odd position, however. The songs he did with Supertramp in the 1970s and early 1980s – such as “The Logical Song,” “Take the Long Way Home,” and “Dreamer” – are still staples of radio.


But Hodgson’s own name is less well known than that of Supertramp. “I’m not a known quantity to a lot of people,” he says. “People have been hearing these songs for years, but it’s taken me a while to establish my own name.”


His recording career actually dates to 1969, when he played guitar on the song “Duck Pond” by a group called People Like Us. At the time, he was fresh out of boarding school in Buckinghamshire.


Less than a year later, he was tapped to sing lead on “Mr. Boyd,” a song by a pop band called Argosy. The members of that impromptu group included the piano player Reginald Dwight, who would later change his name to Elton John.

 

“Yes, Reggie did a very nice job on that song,” says Hodgson with a laugh. More seriously, he adds, “I was totally tongue-tied. I was 19 and working with these red-hot musicians. It was an amazing baptism.”

THE LEGENDARY SINGER-SONGWRITER FORMERLY OF SUPERTRAMP

**BRINGING HIS FULL BAND TO AUSTRALIA FOR THE FIRST TIME**


Roger Hodgson has been recognized as one of the most gifted composers, songwriters, and lyricists of our time. As the co-founder and legendary voice of Supertramp, he gave us the timeless classics such as “Give a little bit,” “The Logical Song,” “School,” “Dreamer,” “Take the Long Way Home,” “Breakfast In America,” “Child of Vision,” “Fool’s Overture,” and so many others that have become the soundtrack of our lives. Many people don’t realize that although Roger and Supertramp’s other co-founder shared writing credit, they actually wrote and composed separately with each singing their own respective songs. 

 

Hodgson co-founded Supertramp in 1969. During the 14 years that he led the band prior do his departure, Supertramp became a worldwide phenomenon with sales of over 60 million albums. Although Roger departed the band in 1983 and moved away from the Los Angeles music scene to Northern California to raise his children and be close to nature, he is still regarded by many as Supertramp’s spiritual and creative force. 


His songs have stood the test of time and are more relevant today, if not more so, than when they were released. Hodgson recently received the honour of two awards from ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers) for “Give a Little Bit” and “Breakfast in America” being in the top played songs in their repertory.

 

Hodgson is currently on his world tour and selling out shows around the globe, in addition to receiving fantastic reviews from media and fans alike. Don’t miss this one-off opportunity

Roger Hodgson is Bringing His Band Down Under
as Part of His World Wide Breakfast in America Tour!

 

Roger with guitar


Special Announcement of March and April
2013 Tour

 

One of the planet’s finest singers and songwriters played with only one other accompanist three years ago and sold-out his tour of Australia. This time the writer and singer of Supertramp’s anthems brings his full band Down Under –
FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME !!
 

Roger returns to Australia for a highly anticipated exclusive tour of seven shows in March and April 2013!  Australians have been asking for Roger’s return, and we have been listening! You have Roger back and this time, with his full band! Roger says, “I am very happy to be returning to Australia – I felt so welcomed when I was there in 2010.  It was a great tour and I am really looking forward to sharing my music with all of you again.”
 

Universally recognized as one of the most gifted composers and songwriters to have ever put pen to paper, Hodgson helped define a generation of progressive rock.  Founding Supertramp in 1969, Hodgson’s dulcet tones and beautifully crafted lyrics helped his former band sell in excess of 60 million albums, transforming them into a worldwide phenomenon.  Although he departed the band in 1983, for many he is still regarded as the spiritual and creative force behind Supertramp.
 

Join Roger as he and his band perform the timeless classics he wrote and composed such as The Logical Song,” Breakfast in America,” “Give a Little Bit,” Dreamer,” School,” “Take the Long Way Home,” It's Raining Again,” Child of Vision,” Even in the Quietest Moments,” Fool's Overture” as well as favorites from his solo albums such as In Jeopardy, Only Because of You,” and Lovers in the Wind.”
 

See what the press had to say when Roger last toured Australia in April 2010:
 

Roger Hodgson is one of the contemporary pop worlds great talents and it’s well worth making the effort to see his show, pay homage and be thoroughly entertained by a quality individual. His performance was exemplary. Vocally he seems actually stronger and more assured than when he was a younger man making multi million selling albums. His guitar playing and keyboard work was superb.” ~ Hey Hey My My
 

If you were ever a fan of Supertramp then attending a Roger Hodgson concert these days is as good as it gets and it gets good.  As the principal songwriter of Supertramp and lead singer of the songs he wrote, Hodgson solo sounds exactly like Supertramp which is a good thing.  The Roger Hodgson setlist reads like a history of music.” ~ Undercover
 

From a fan~
 

ROGER HODGSON is rock royalty in the truest sense. After seeing Roger here in Australia in 2010 and listening to his voice sing the songs that he has written is quite an amazing experience. Rogers voice has actually improved over the years and now playing with a full band and has himself and other members sounding like Supertramp, more so then what Supertramp sounds like. Attending the shows that Roger puts together is more like a life experience then just a simple concert, the musical experience will stick with me forever. I implore people to try and see Roger perform with his band, you wont be disappointed. I am going to see Roger perform 5 shows in Australia over 9 days in 2013, and to have Roger come back here to Australia after just 3 years simply shows the talent that he poses, and how privileged we are to have him back here, even after writing such hits nearly 40yrs ago, Breakfast In America, Logical Song, Take The Long Way Home, Dreamer, Give A Little Bit, etc etc and still hearing them currently on radio today shows how strong Rogers song writing skills are and the musical talent he oozes. Rogers all round music credentials is a class above most musicians his songs simply say it all for him, i implore people to try and see Roger perform his magic sound on stage, you wont ever forget it. - RICK

Roger Hodgson, Legendary Singer-Songwriter
formerly of Supertramp,
Returns for ‘Breakfast in America’ this Fall

 

Roger with guitar


First Major U.S. Tour in 30 Years Hits East, West Coasts Amid Sold-Out European Dates and Critical Acclaim

 

Fresh on the heels of his current sold-out European tour and additional sold-out performances earlier this year in the U.S. and South America, legendary songwriter and vocalist Roger Hodgson, co-founder and original singer-songwriter from Supertramp, continues the U.S. leg of his popular “Breakfast in America” tour this fall amid tremendous critical acclaim.

 

The 34-date tour - which features all his hit songs including “The Logical Song,” “Breakfast in America,” “Give a Little Bit,”  “Dreamer,” “School,” “Take the Long Way Home,” “It's Raining Again,” and “Fool's Overture” - is his first major U.S. tour since his departure from Supertramp in 1983.

 

No longer the young shy virtuoso, he is now a charismatic and full hearted performer, his signature voice sounding better than ever.  As Rolling Stone noted following a performance earlier this year: “Remarkably, the humble musical legend is back and his signature voice sounds stronger than ever… To see and hear Roger Hodgson in concert today is not simply to experience a sort of musical homecoming, it is also the only real way to hear some of the most beloved songs ever sung as they were meant to be sung by the man who first brought them to life.” Added the Huffington Post: “This is the real deal: a legendary music man, in brilliant form and shimmering presence, supported by a tight, terrific band.”

 

Universally hailed as one of the most gifted composers and lyricists of our times, Roger Hodgson helped define a generation of progressive rock, and wrote and sang Supertramp’s globally successful and enduring anthems – timeless songs that helped his former band sell well over 60 million albums to date. His unmistakable voice also propels Supertramp fan favorites he created such as “Hide in Your Shell,” “Child of Vision,” “Even in the Quietest Moments,” “Don't Leave Me Now,” and “Lord is it Mine.”Hodgson delivers all of those songs, as well as solo compositions such as “Only Because of You,” “In Jeopardy,” “Lovers in the Wind,” and “Along Came Mary” from his five solo album releases, on his world tour.  

 

Uniting generations at his concerts, Hodgson and his four-piece band transport baby boomers back to their youth and give younger generations a taste of why his heartfelt songs have endured. Breakfast in America had sales of over 20 million copies and hit the #1 spot on album charts worldwide. Audiences are once again experiencing the magic and spirit that Hodgson created with Supertramp.

 

Hodgson closes his concerts with the crowd singing along to “Give a Little Bit,” a song heard in a recent video that went viral with over six million views. Hodgson's timeless composition has a universal message that is as relevant today as when he wrote it over 40 years ago. The newest version, “Give a Little Bit with Children’s Choir,” was just released as a single on iTunes.  Hodgson’s latest CD, “Classics Live, is available through iTunes or from
www.Rogerhodgson.com

 

Hodgson co-founded Supertramp in 1969 and for many fans was the heart and creative force behind the band for the 14 years prior to his departure. Roger’s passion for his music and his art shines through in the magic and intimacy that is felt when he performs his songs in concert.

 

“Success in music to me is when I look out and I see a member of the audience crying or having ecstatic joy in their heart,” says Hodgson, who was awarded the Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French Ministry of Culture at a sold-out Paris concert earlier this year. “To me, how much I have shared my heart and been able to touch someone else in a positive way is the measure of success as an artist.” The San Diego Reader remarked on Roger, “Frequently entertaining the audience with stories about the origins of his songs, Hodgson connects deeply with the fans in a way few stars of his stature do.”

Roger, of course, is prominent in the recently released Supertramp ‘Live In Paris ‘79’ DVD.  All the songs you see Hodgson singing lead vocals on in the classic line up are his songs that you will see him performing on his UK tour – no longer the young shy virtuoso, he is now a charismatic and full hearted performer, his signature voice sounding better than ever.  In 2012 he performed a sell-out show in Paris and was awarded the Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French Ministry of Culture.  Rolling Stone said of a recent show, “To the adoring fans who rise to their feet... it might as well be 1979 all over again.”

 

Hodgson co-founded Supertramp in 1969 and for many fans was the heart and creative force behind the band for the 14 years prior to his departure. Roger’s passion for his music and his art shines through in the magic and intimacy that is felt when he performs his songs in concert. “Success in music to me is when I look out and I see a member of the audience crying or having ecstatic joy in their heart.  To me, how much I have shared my heart and been able to touch someone else in a positive way is the measure of success as an artist.” The San Diego Reader remarked on Roger, “Frequently entertaining the audience with stories about the origins of his songs, Hodgson connects deeply with the fans in a way few stars of his stature do.”

David Wild, Contributing Editor, Rolling Stone said, “Remarkably the humble musical legend is back and his signature voice sounds stronger than ever… To see and hear Roger Hodgson in concert today is not simply to experience a sort of musical homecoming. It is also the only real way to hear some of the most beloved songs ever sung as they were meant to be sung by the man who first brought them to life.”
