Roger continues to perform his classics he recorded with Supertramp and other fan favorites live on tour around the globe.
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, a global success that resulted in sales of over 60 million albums.
Enjoy reading some of the thoughts and experiences fans are sharing about Roger's concerts! ~
"There were smiles. There was joy. There were tears as he sang the songs that helped us through the bad times. The melodies and harmonies can not be replicated except by the master himself.. This, my friends, is the music that connects all of us. It was a dream come true to see him, I suggest all do the same. Mr Hodgson is one of us. Thank you for the memories Roger. God Bless you sir-you have helped more folks than you can imagine with your heartfelt songs."
"What a wonderful experience last night; a great sense of shared warmth; for music that has been held for years inside individuals as their own, melded with their personal memories and feelings, that suddenly not only belongs to others gathered around too, but suddenly seems to belong to one man yet even more powerfully and deeply. Of course! It's the performer; the very creator and artist himself; it's HIS music, and he's playing it just a few yards away...Fantastic. Thank you."
"I wanted to thank you for a wonderful evening last Friday. I have always loved your writing and you vocals, but I can not describe what a memorable night that was. Seeing you is way beyond a concert, the way you interact with the audience, the way you are a truly humble and genuine person made a night I will never forget. Thank you for a truly life altering night!"
Have a look what the press is saying ~
"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
"Roger's voice is even better than it was when he was with Supertramp. My friends and I were blown away by the sheer talent Roger has. I would highly recommend anyone to go see Roger live if they can." Daniel Knighton, Examiner
"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
"Tonight's show reinforces the sheer volume of Roger's back catalogue, as he performs a large number of his Supertramp contributions plus a sprinkling of his later solo works, and the most telling fact here is that, even though it is only his half of the Supertramp catalogue that he performs, if this were a Supertramp show, the setlist would feel satisfactorily complete."
