Uncle Roger is a proud Gomeroi Song-man and Elder. He was born in Moree NSW and raised on the Toomelah Aboriginal Mission Station on the bend of the Macintyre River. Charlie Duncan taught him how to play guitar at an early age and Roger also loved to sing with his mother and grandmother in the church choir. Although Gospel music was his first love, once he found his way to Tamworth in his late teens Roger’s passion for Country music grew and he began to invest it with his own Aboriginal style. 

Now in 2025, as a seasoned entertainer and story teller, he tours nationally and internationally, performing in mainstream and across First Nation communities. By recognising the importance of music and song within Aboriginal culture, Uncle Roger uses it to bring people together for healing and self-awareness. He uses his voice to uplift people’s spirits, bringing more joy and laughter into their lives. With a kind and generous spirit he is a well loved and inspiring role model.
