Justin Rogers

Justin Rogers is a devoted musician. Upon graduating from Berklee College of Music in 2004, he moved to the Florida Panhandle where he performs over 250 shows a year with numerous acts, including Black Eyed Blonde, Mojiles, Schofield, The Dog Spankin Monkeys, The Playground Big Band, Hot Lava, TMJ Lockjaw, The B-Sides, Grape Drink, as well as many side projects and other smaller groups. When asked what style of music he specializes in, he says… EVERYTHING. He began playing the piano at 4, and once he picked up the guitar at 13, his life took a turn for the better. He performs jazz gigs, reggae gigs, rock gigs, classical gigs, hip-hop gigs, acoustic gigs, and whatever else the occasion calls for. Musicians are eager to play with him because he can play any style, appease any ear, and the listeners always want more. Notable venues Justin has performed include The Hard Rock Casino in Biloxi, The IP Casino in Biloxi, Sky Bar in Auburn, The Hangout in Gulf Shores, Spinnickers in Panama City Beach, Wind Creek Casino in Atmore, The Swamp, Harry T’s, all Heleback locations, AJ’s in Destin, Harbor Docks, The Harbor Walk, Seville Quarter, Juanas, The Electric Cowboy, Tight Lines, just to name a few. He has performed in casinos, restaurants, bars, clubs, parties, festivals, funerals, weddings, and everywhere in between. His record label Pendulum Records is home to 5 artists signed to Pendulum Records, where Justin records, produces, and oversees the recording process of his own music and others wishing to release a CD to the world. He teaches music. He performs music. And he records music. Berklee has taught him the theory needed to excel in jazz and classical studies, and has enabled Justin to live life attempting to break musical boundaries in any genre of music he so desires.
