A Chicago native who doubles on guitar and harmonica, blues-rocker Roger Connelly has traveled the world making music since the ‘90s, and returns to the studio under his own name for the first time in 20 years for this set of originals, all delivered from a unique point of view.
Now based in Nashville, where he most recently worked four nights a week as a solo act at the Millennium Maxwell House Hotel for the better part of three years prior to the COVID-19 shutdown. In the early 2000s, he was a member of Maxwell Street legend Jimmie Lee Robinson’s last touring band, a unit that had Bob Stroger on bass.
Shortly thereafter, Connelly uprooted himself for Catalina Island in California, where he spent 12 years, dividing his time between his own group, the Blues Merchants, and as a member of Welshman Spencer Davis’ Catalina Island All-Stars, contributing two songs to an eponymous album the group released in 2012. His tunes have appeared in two major films, including Rodney Dangerfield’s “Back by Midnight.”
