Bio!
Marwood is the voice and songs of London born singer/songwriter Benji Rogers. "With Benji Rogers' stirring and soulful voice and driving guitar hooks, which the Black Crowes would be proud of, Marwood draw you into a world of lush harmonies and compelling rhythms. I defy you not to be singing along at the top of your voice by the second hearing!!" (Jeff Collins, The BBC) Driven by catchy lyricism and influences ranging from Neil Young to Little Feat, Rogers’ finished package (stop smiling!) glows with passion and raw emotion. Marwood has performed such esteemed NYC rooms as The Bowery Ballroom, The Mercury Lounge and The Knitting Factory as well as London’s distinguished Broadway Market Gallery, the Bedford and Glasgow’s Oran Mor. Marwood albums have been played on hundreds of radio stations in the US and Europe, and charted in the top 30 US Roots Rock Americana Chart, or so he’s been told. Marwood has also been played on both XM and Sirius satellite radio. NYC's Q104.3 (Clear Channel) selected Marwood as one of their top local bands and Blender.com also featured the video for the single "Monday Over Friday" as their video of the day. Rogers traveled over 53,700 miles in 2006 and 2007 on his “One Mile Down The Road Tour”, and he’s tired so make sure you buy him a drink in 2008!

'Even more than the world class musicianship and production , what I like about Marwood is the fact that I can understand the lyrics and they make it easy to follow the storyline . Others only seem ' to wish ' this were possible'
Eddie Russell , host of the ' Country Eastern / Outlaw For Peace Radio Show '
"Monday Over Friday" gives you a taste of the future for this rising group...."
Stan Edwards, Countrybear.com
"Marwood takes the best qualities of 70s arena rock and mixes in sweet melodies reminiscent of 80s rock ballads for a sound that reminds you why you go early to live shows and never use the seat you paid for."
