For the past seven years, Roger Creager has been leaving his musical mark throughout the southern part of the U.S., especially his beloved home state of Texas. With the release of his newest album, Live Across Texas, Creager is on his way to stardom.

Although Creager has known from the time that he was six years old that his roots were in creating country music, he found himself at Sam Houston State University earning a degree in business. He then made his way to Aggieland, a known mecca for Texas Country Music, and acquired an agriculture degree.

After a few years of working as an accountant in Houston, Texas, Creager decided it was time to pursue his music with a vengeance. “I went to college and played it safe for a while, and leaving a steady job and steady paychecks was a hard thing to do, but I knew that I had to do it,” says Creager thinking back on his decision. He headed back to College Station to take part in the Texas Music Revolution. Although he had been singing since he was a teenager, Creager didn’t start taking his songwriting seriously until college. In fact, it wasn’t until he was 26 that he began performing his own songs for an audience.

Creager’s role in his first band was that of a piano player, a talent he learned when he was in the second grade. About a year later, Creager joined up with Justin Pollard, Pat Green’s current drummer, to form a cover band in 1996. It started out slow, playing five or six gigs a month in local bars and venues. When Pollard left to play with Green, Roger knew that he had to do it his way – his songs, his music, no more covers.

From then on, Creager gained the confidence to perform his own songs, which led to such hits as “Moving On”, “Having Fun all Wrong” and “Love.” His first two albums, Having Fun all Wrong and I Got the Guns, depict Creager’s irreplaceable twist on traditional country. His second album debuted at #1 on the Lone Star Music Charts. His fame also named him Entertainer of the Year in the 2001 Texas Music Awards.

Creager, now 32, has come a long way since his early beginnings. His album sales continue to rise, as do the attendance numbers at his charismatic shows. His resounding stage presence and down-home energy makes it clear that he and his tight-knit band are doing what they love and do best.

On September 7th, 2004 Dualtone Music Group will release Roger Creager’s Live Across Texas. Each song was recorded in the legendary dancehalls of Texas: Hurricane Harry's, The Mucky Duck, The Firehouse Saloon, & Gruene Hall over a three month period in January, February and March of 2004.

Live Across Texas, captures Roger at his best - living his dream, selling out shows all across Texas and riding high at the top of the Texas music scene.
