DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMay 17\n\n\n\nJamiah Rogers ‘The Dirty Deacon Denzel’ And The Dirty Chuch Band ( https://rosaslounge.com/events/89745 )\n\n\n\nOver 50 years after Jimi Hendrix set the music world ablaze, Jamiah Rogers, alongside a select group of his contemporaries, is reigniting the fire with their electrifying blues performances. For Rogers and his peers, the blues is more than just an emotion; it’s a compelling call to action, a genre that fuels their creative drive and transforms their guitars into instruments of sonic exploration. They are at the forefront of a new blues era, ready to take their music beyond the stars.\n\n\n\nNow at 28, Jamiah Rogers has matured from the promising young talent of the past decade into a powerhouse performer with a reputation that spans continents. With notable performances in Canada and Europe, and collaborations with artists like Annika Chambers, John Primer, and Billy Branch, Rogers has firmly established himself as a Chicago Blues luminary on the global stage. He has embraced the title of “Blues Superman,” a hero dedicated to keeping the blues vibrant and alive. Adopting the new stage name “The Dirty Deacon Denzel” and leading “The Dirty Chuch Band,” Rogers continues to evolve, showcasing his exceptional talent and passion for the blues.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJAMIAH ROGERS signs with Delmark Records!

He grew up with a singing mother and a multi-instrumental father whose main instrument was guitar. At age 3, Jamiah started playing drums in school, church, and his fathers band, The Tony Rogers Band. Jamiah enjoys all genres of music such as Blues, Funk, Rock, Reggae, Soul and R&B. Inspirations and heroes are Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, Albert King, Freddie King, B.B. King, Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters.\n\n\n\nEven though drums were Jamiah’s first instrument, at age 7, Jamiah’s parents encouraged him to pick up the guitar and the occasional father/son lessons began. Jamiah also is a multi instrumentalist. Drums, guitar, bass, piano, organ, are all extensions of Jamiah’s musical genius but guitar and drums are his first loves. At age of 15, he started his first power trio band “Jamiah on fire & The Red Machine” as the Lead vocalist and guitarist . Jamiah and his father are a winning team when it comes to writing, creating, and producing. Being able to be original and letting people hear your thought and ideas is what inspires Jamiah to record and write original music.\n\n\n\nJamiah recorded 2 cd’s named “Taking the stage”(2012) and “Winners Never Quit”(2015). They performed in and out of state and also performed in Canada and Amsterdam. In 2017, Jamiah recorded his first solo release “Blues Superman”. The concept of the “Blues Superman” is a hero who is saving the blues and keeping it alive. People always ask Jamiah “How does he feel about the blues, and what does he see in the future of the blues?” His response, “The Blues feels great, it lives through us all, and it will never die”. Through his career, Jamiah has made a special appearance on the Experience Hendrix(2010) concert and closed the concert out with Billy Cox, at the Chicago Theatre. He is also no stranger to Canada. Trois-Rivieres, Ottawa, Montreal, Mont-Tremblant, and Sherbrooke are just some cities in Canada that Jamiah loves to perform.\n\n\n\nIn 2018, Jamiah toured Europe and France with 2019 BMA “Soul And R&B female of the year” Annika Chambers on the New Blues Generation Tour. In 10 years, Jamiah will be releasing more music, eventually from his own label, performing on more tours, and keeping the blues alive for the younger generation as well as his own. Jamiah recently released a new CD called “Born Again Blues”.\n\n\n\nJamiah Rogers “Blues Superman” (The Jamiah Rogers Band) is on a life long journey to spread blues and happiness wherever he goes, be a witness to his musical genius and greatness!\n\n\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/TheJamiahRogersBand/ ( https://www.facebook.com/TheJamiahRogersBand/ )\n\n\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCw2oD8CEcvvlhmM6pQPbc7Q ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCw2oD8CEcvvlhmM6pQPbc7Q )\n\n\n\nhttps://www.JamiahRogersBlues.weebly.com ( https://www.JamiahRogersBlues.weebly.com )\n\n\n\nhttp://jamiahrogersblues.weebly.com/shop.html\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/TheJamiahRogersBand/ ( https://www.facebook.com/TheJamiahRogersBand/ )\n\n\n\nQ&A with Jamiah “Deacon Denzel” Rogers – a lifelong journey to spread blues and happiness wherever he goes\n\n\n\n\nPosted by Michael Limnios Blues Network ( https://blues.gr/profile/MichalisLimnios ) on December 15, 2023 at 11:00am\n\n\n\nView Blog ( https://blues.gr/profiles/blog/list?user=3kxzuxnmw2054 )\n\n\n\n\n“I want my music to affect people in a spiritually positive outer-body experience. I want to inspire all ages, Male and Female, to show them that anything is possible with God, hard work, discipline, and dedication.”\n\n\n\nJamiah Rogers:\n\n\n\nThe Baddest Young Chicago Blues Man\n\n\n\nJamiah was 1 of 2 born April 21, 1995, in the south suburbs of Chicago, Illinois.

My love for the blues is the biggest piece of me. I have a passion and a love for other genres, but I live the Blues. I think if everybody had an understanding of what Blues is, they would know they live it as well.\n\n\n\nHow do you describe your sound and songbook? What’s the balance in music between technique and soul?\n\n\n\nDescribing my ever-evolving sound/songbook and the balance is as best to my Band named “Dirty Church”. We are all church musicians, personally born and raised, who play every Sunday, so we all are all experienced in the Gospel field. We all played in school. After that we played sand learned with older generations of musicians in the industry, personally with my pops. So, to say my sound is influenced by my environment and certain sounds that were introduced to me that I attached myself to. Between technique and soul, I love to keep the formats of songs true, but I dedicate my originality to anything I play as well as my band members.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“What I see is people have a sense of the Blues but the true love for it has diminished. Also, true blues being hard to find makes it a gamble for people acceptance of the music. Unexperienced Blues enthusiast don’t know what real Blues is and the Real Blues Lovers start to start some of the sound “watered down”. I want my music to affect people in a spiritually positive outer-body experience. I want to inspire all ages, Male and Female, to show them that anything is possible with God, hard work, discipline, and dedication.” (Jamiah “Deacon Denzel” Rogers, Poland 2023 / Photo © by Krzysztof Szafraniec)\n\n\n\nWhat moment changed your life the most? What´s been the highlights in your life and career so far?\n\n\n\nBesides turning 18 and legally being able to get into the blues clubs, Losing my mother in January 2020 who was my biggest supporter, changed my life, She inspired me the most as a person and as a musician. My mindset, my image, my security, she was all of that. Her and my pops made a great team, while he was managing me. The highlight(s) of my career goes back to around 2016 on the Experienced Hendrix Tour. I was able to close out the Chicago Theater show with Billy Cox, playing Red House. Another is being able to take my mom to Amsterdam/ Paris to see me perform. My latest highlight for my career and life is Dirty Church just completing a 28-day overseas tour. I toured cities in Poland, Czech Republic, and Austria.\n\n\n\nAre there any memories from gigs, jams, open acts and studio sessions which you’d like to share with us?\n\n\n\nActually, short story. Maybe 2012. I was invited by Buddy Guys original drummer, Tim Austin. That night I was invited by Buddy Guy on stage to play. I played my hardest until the amp blew out. Right after, Buddy Guy put his guitar on me. His tech shortened his strap on me and I picked up where I left of. That was me and Buddy’s first and last personal encounter. I still see him from time to time at his current location.\n\n\n\nWhat do you miss most nowadays from the blues of the past? What are your hopes and fears for the future of?\n\n\n\nWhat I miss most are what we call “The Vets” of the industry. I was learning a lot up close and personal. The “hands on” experience was fun. If I could I would go back to age 7-15 and  do every Larosa’s Sunday Night Jam over again. I have no fears but my hopes for the Blues is that everyone who plays or involves themselves with it stays true to it and the people who never experienced my blues, gets the opportunity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“I’ve learned my history, heritage, and originality through the blues. My love for the blues is the biggest piece of me. I have a passion and a love for other genres, but I live the Blues. I think if everybody had an understanding of what Blues is, they would know they live it as well.” (Jamiah “Deacon Denzel” Rogers, Festiwal 38 Jesień z Bluesem, Białystok Poland 2023 / Photo © by Krzysztof Szafraniec)\n\n\n\nWhat are some of the most important lessons you have learned from your experience in the music paths?\n\n\n\nOne of the most important lessons I learned is, you are your best imitation. You will be surprised at what you pull out of yourself. Also, Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance.\n\n\n\nDo you think there is an audience for blues music in its current state? or at least a potential for young people to become future audiences and fans?\n\n\n\nDo I think there is an audience for blues music in its current state, Yes! Joe Bonamassa is selling out Cruise line strictly for Blues and also for sure The Blues Bender is also Being sold out. The Platforms are bearing with the fruit of audience member support, I think the focus on where and how the blues is presented may influence more younger people to become future fans.\n\n\n\nWhat is the impact of Blues on the socio-cultural implications? How do you want the music to affect people?\n\n\n\nWhat I see is people have a sense of the Blues but the true love for it has diminished. Also, true blues being hard to find makes it a gamble for people acceptance of the music. Unexperienced Blues enthusiast don’t know what real Blues is and the Real Blues Lovers start to start some of the sound “watered down”. I want my music to affect people in a spiritually positive outer-body experience. I want to inspire all ages, Male and Female, to show them that anything is possible with God, hard work, discipline, and dedication.\n\n\n\nJamiah “Deacon Denzel” Rogers – Home\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(Jamiah “Deacon Denzel” Rogers, Poland 2023 / Photos © by Krzysztof Szafraniec)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://blues.gr/profiles/blogs/q-a-with-jamiah-deacon-denzel-rogers-a-lifelong-journey-to-spread?fbclid=IwAR183awkPtHeSEtmOxxJgiRHamG3wPB_phMvmjT8SUeEs9RtoASivhlU_-c ( https://blues.gr/profiles/blogs/q-a-with-jamiah-deacon-denzel-rogers-a-lifelong-journey-to-spread?fbclid=IwAR183awkPtHeSEtmOxxJgiRHamG3wPB_phMvmjT8SUeEs9RtoASivhlU_-c )\n\n\n\n\nhttps://youtube.com/watch?v=AWY8fhbdzn4%3Fstart%3D167%26feature%3Doembed\n\n\n\n\nABOUT JAMIAH ROGERS \n\n\n\nJamiah was 1 of 2 born April 21, 1995, in the south suburbs of Chicago, Illinois.
