When it comes to learning how to make a name for yourself as an independent music artist, Roger Marin has been a life long student. Living and breathing music for most of his life, as a teen playing guitar alongside his father – a roaming country music artist, then several years as pedal steel and lead guitar with Fred Eaglesmith and the Flying Squirrels. More recently on his own and ramping up to record, promote and release his third album, the lessons learned have paid off in many ways for the Thorold guitarist and singer-songwriter.
Marin's stage performance is well honed, engaging and brimming with his zest for life. His song writing resonates with his belief that “You only find satisfaction in music by doing it your own way. Right or wrong, you should do it the way you feel it. Don’t rush, just work hard and do it right.” He has made a world of friends in the business and has an enthusiastic and growing audience. Marin's no-nonsense approach has earned him the respect and camaraderie of many fellow singer-songwriters. He has worked with the likes of Willie Nelson, Hayes Carll, Willie P. Bennett, Scott Nolan and Gordie Tentrees.
Constantly evolving as songwriter and performer, Marin's third album is very much anticipated by his fans. His debut album, Roger Marin Jr., features 12 tracks giving insight to the mechanics and road warriors he was raised with. Marin is no stranger to the rough men and tough lifestyle he writes about. The sophomore album, High Roads, with co-written title track, "High Roads" (written with Texan songwriter Adam Carroll) and its metaphoric imagery to "Rollin On", "Hang this Hat", "Broken Glass and Busted Songs" and "City Girl", this album paints a cinematographic portrait of life on the road. There is sincerity and authenticity to this artists writing that is unmistakable.
Whether performing solo or with the trio which create the Roger Marin Band, including Phil Bosley (Bass/Vox), Matt Keighan (Drums/Vox) and Mike Tuyp (Guitar) from reaches around the globe to perhaps your very own backyard, do not let an opportunity pass to experience this talent.
Dear Roger Marin Band, It's after Halloween and the busy holidays are approaching. Take a break and drop by to listen to my featured songs. You may find my music to be just the calm you need during this hectic time of the year. I appreciate your friendship and I hope you enjoy the music. I wish you much joy and peace.
I am about half way done with my latest update to my page. Take a peek and listen to the first five songs from my up and comming cd. Right now the release date is in December.
A new feature is you can post your favorite song on your web page!
My new theme is about fall, with the songs having a sence of wanderlust and rambling on.
I hope you enjoy my pictures, and you will return to my page when it's completed. I'm currently recording the other five songs and putting together the final touches.
I hope you will take the time to listen, check out my pictures and (please, please, please) post a comment about your favorite song from my playlist.
I hope you are having a nice fall and take care. I hope to hear from you soon.

Hey Roger, love your music! First caught a show a few years back in Kimberley, BC at the ski hill, grabbed high roads and listen to it all the time. Would be great to catch another show sometime and hear what you've been working on since.
Today I would like to let you know about two print magazines in Germany I'm writing for.
"Living Line Dance", reporting about line dance and country music, and "Folk Magazine", reporting about folk and country music. The magazines are high respected in Europe. They offer you a good chance to publicize yourself in Europe and Germany.
For more information, please contact me at MySpace or send email to Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de with the headline "Advertise at Living Line Dance and Folk Magazine".
this is just a quick note to let you know that this is the last chance to get a physical copy of my first album "Pretty Boys and Ugly Girls".
I'm going to release my new album this fall (subscribe to my blog if you want to be informed!) and the first one will then be only available as a download version.
So if you prefer a proper CD - like I do! - a record you can really hold in your hands, with all the artwork and stuff - this is your chance! :-)
Grab your hard copy of "Pretty Boys and Ugly Girls" now on CD Baby while stocks last!
Today I like to inform you, that you can read and watch interviews with your favorit country stars in Enlgish, German and French at http://www.CountryHome.de/Interviews .
Warm regards
Christian

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
