Bio

‘Rogersville Road’ (Justin Johnson-guitars/Andy Dortch-bass/Keith Harrelson-drums,vocals) is a rock-fusion trio from Wilmington, NC, blending the elements of their influences (SRV, Jimi Hendrix, ABB, DTB, The Black Crowes, Gov’t Mule) into their own blues-driven jam-rock.

Growing up in the region the three musicians played together in previous musical endeavors, but it wasn’t until March of 2004 that ‘Rogersville Road’ was officially a band.

Getting their start at Percy’s Jazz Club in downtown Wilmington, they quickly built a fan base and began to move on to bigger clubs in town such as: Charley Brownz, The Whiskey, Marrz Theatre, The Azalea Festival Hilton Stage, and soon began gigging in Raleigh, having played The Pour House Music Hall, Ruckus, The Dive Bar.

Rogersville Road played 100 shows in 2005 including opening for two grammy winners: The Allman Brothers Band @ Alltel Pavilion, and for Jeff Coffin @ Marrz Theatre

In the Fall of 2004, ‘Rogersville Road’ went into Audio Genesis Studios to record their first CD. By February 2005, their self-titled debut CD was complete and warmly received by their fans and local radio, being requested and played daily.

‘Rogersville Road’ is just getting warmed up, writing new songs, preparing to organize a tour schedule and return to the studio in late Fall.

The screaming guitar, pounding rhythms, and throaty vocals of Rogersville Road spell out true rock-n-roll.
