About Me

Introspective, autumnal solo 'folk singer,' bluesy frontman for the critically acclaimed 77s, and all-things-to-all men guitarist/vocalist for the rootsy, collaborative Lost Dogs, Michael Roe has, over the course of his 20+ years as a national recording artist, delivered well-crafted songs and lyrics to his audience. In recent years Roe has released three highly regarded solo albums and three 'duo' albums with bassist Mark Harmon, as well as new material with the 77s and the alt-Americana 'supergroup' Lost Dogs. Roe is also a highly in-demand producer and session player.
Michael Roe has carved out a body of work that is broad, deep, well regarded and much acclaimed. In each of his recordings, Roe desires not only to put forth a finely crafted song but also to reveal a tortured yet strong soul, writing from the experience of life's difficulty and struggle as well as its joy and promise.
Michael Roe will be appearing solo at Cornerstone this summer. Click on the poster below and get your tickets now!
