" Roger's charming humour, musical talent and versitality gave our event the extra ingredient it needed to put it over the top. "
   Mayor Janet Gutowski Chair of the Frontenac Heritage Festival 2008

".Roger James is a scream ... comedians have not always made the best musicians, James defies this history, he is accomplished on several
instruments.." Evelyn Erskine,The Ottawa Citizen
"Roger's zany humour and impressive musical talents helped our group to gel and made our conference more memorable and engaging... a highlight of the week and helped bring the group together."
Paul Bowman, Queen's Theological College 2004-08
"...He talked fast, moved
rapidly ... the crowd stormed
him back for an encore..."
Wilder Penfield III

Roger James - Comedy and Music 
What's "Comedy and Music?" - "O.K., I'm playing a song, if you're laughing it's comedy. If you're not, it's music". 
An evening with Roger features humorous songs and ,spontaneous off-the-cuff humour. A terrific banjo and guitar player, he also plays Bodhran (Irish drum) and various other instruments. Combine this with musical styles as diverse as 50's& 60s, Blues, Rock,Country, Bluegrass, Celtic and Folk and and you have a entertaining collision of humour and musical skill.
        Roger performs at festivals, events, schools, conferences, fairs, on riverboats and in concert. You can also find him sharing a stage with Wendell Ferguson, comedy songwriter and award-winning guitarist, and  Nancy White, comic singer-songwriter of CBC • Sunday Morning fame. "Roger is possibly the most hilarious man on earth", says Nancy.  
      Film historians, please note, Roger was featured in the 2009 Bravo documentary "Voicing Irish Music" and appeared onscreen as a Fish-monger and Street Musician in the 1999 HBO movie "Vendetta".
