ABOUT ROJOR 

This UK based singer-songwriter brings a positive and chilled vibe in difficult times and his music never follows trends. Comparisons range from The Blue Nile, Prefab Sprout and Prince to Aimee Mann and John Cale. ROJOR has been described in the press as “the undiscovered genius” and his songs as “sexy”, “extensively moody” and “ethereal”, his lyrics are “intelligent and inspiring”. His music is beautifully arranged and he is at home in many musical fields. His song writing not only deals with “the vagaries of love and inner frustration” but his social agenda is evident in songs like the haunting ‘Primitive’ and the soulful ‘Echoes of the Earth”. ROJOR's songs mix many musical influences and the sexy huskiness to his voice keeps the listener entranced.

Nominated as Best Male Solo Artist in the 2005 TME Awards ROJOR hit No.2 in the UKSounds download chart in 2006 with the single “Sail Away With Me”, from the wonderful “Faint Signal” album. This was followed up with 2007’s “The Book of Secret Songs” and “The Thief Who Stole the Truth” (2008), which brought forth radio hits “Made of Clay”, “November Song” and the brass filled (The Memphis Horns) “Light Up the World”. ROJOR has picked up airplay right across the BBC night-time network as well as spot plays on the UK’s most listened to station BBC Radio Two and in Europe (Germany, France and the Netherlands) and the USA.

From a full band to a one-man acoustic show this is an accomplished live artist having played live with the likes of Primal Scream and Martin Stephenson. ROJOR has also headlined the ‘FTWL Stage’ at BBC Music Live (Middlesbrough) and is no stranger to the big audience, but he is also equally at home in more intimate live surroundings where the true essence of his beautiful songs is often best captured, as was the case at the GALA Theatre (Durham) in 2007 and at Danby Castle in 2009.

In 2009 ROJOR signed with US Media giants ‘The Orchard’ and is now available worldwide through I-TUNES, Napster, HMV, Amazon, Spotify and many more commercial outlets
