... Universally acclaimed as one of the most gifted composers and lyricists of our time, Roger Hodgson, co-founder of Supertramp, helped define a generation of progressive rock. Hodgson is the singer/songwriter of such globally successful and enduring anthems as “The Logical Song," “Breakfast in America," “Give a Little Bit," “Take the Long Way Home," “It’s Raining Again," “School,†“Dreamer,†“Fool’s Overture,†and so very many more - timeless songs that helped his former band sell well over 60 million albums to date.
Hodgson co-founded Supertramp in 1969 and for many fans was the heart and spiritual force behind the band for the 14 years prior to his departure in 1983. While he and the other co-founder shared writing credit, they each actually wrote and composed separately. 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. Hodgson has been touring extensively for the past several years and will again tour worldwide in 2012. “My songs are pieces of my heart that have touched people in a myriad of ways. It’s a very personal connection I have with people and I honor it.†~ Roger Hodgson
