Born in the Netherlands to a Dutch mother and a father with Amerindian origins, the young Natascha Rogers nurtured her four brothers. As a family they used to move often and so she rooted herself to the piano, a world in itself, an anchor, a reference point when the horizon was too far off course. Whether in Breda, Belgium, California, or finally Bordeaux, the only thing that did not change was the upright piano on which, one scale after another, Natascha Rogers developed her playing style by picking up Chick Corea's Childrens Songs or Yann Tiersen’s repertoire.
One day, she discovered a pair of congas left by her father hastily on the front porch of the house. Something awoke in her, and so she travelled the Black Atlantic for several years, receiving lessons from some of the greatest Mandingo and Afro-Cuban master percussionists. From then on, Natascha Rogers flourished, deepening her rhythmic know-how through the different grooves and paths it led her. But how to find one’s own?
In this case Natascha Rogers headed to the quiet commune of Pommerit-le-Vicomte, located in Brittany in northwestern France. Accompanied by sound engineer Joachim Olaya, and with all the time in the world, she began to create her own path, a path that led her to the recording of her new album, now set for release early 2024.
