Roger Tincknell has been performing for children and adults throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe for over 20 years. His strong, expressive vocal styles and masterful instrumental skills bring a warmth and versatility to his performances. With over twelve years as a classroom teacher and music specialist in his background, Roger has also worked as an Artist-in-Residence, pioneering programs in multicultural education and special needs curriculum development.

Roger has numerous recordings for children and adults, including multicultural, environmental, and family albums. Roger's repertoire includes original and contemporary material, as well as traditional folk styles. Ballads, country swing, bluegrass, and yodeling are interspersed with Latin American and international folksongs. Roger accompanies himself on a variety of musical instruments, including guitar, banjo, mandolin, bazouki, harmonica, and piano.

"Roger has played the Iron Horse regularly since its doors opened in 1979. His shows are marked by an engaging informality and have a very broad-based appeal. As much as he lightens the evening with yodels and sing-alongs, he also brings it back home with craftsmanly interpretations of the finest songs in the contemporary folk repertoire. Roger's warmth and good humor make for uncanny audience rapport."
