Roger Knox is a respected First Nations musician and trailblazer whose legacy embodies hope, healing, and reconciliation. He is a proud descendant of the Gomeroi Nation, born in Moree and raised on Toomelah Aboriginal Mission Station near Boggabilla in north-western NSW. Roger is well loved in Aboriginal communities across Australia where he is widely known as the ‘Blak Elvis’ and the ‘Koori King of Country’, thanks to his deeply soulful, honey-soaked baritone voice.
A multi award winning artist, Roger’s contributions to the music industry have been recognized over three decades. He was named NAIDOC National Artist of the Year (1993) and received the prestigious Jimmy Little Award for Lifetime Achievement in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Music (2006). His accomplishments also include his induction into the Australian Country Music Foundation’s Hands of Fame Park (2004), the National Indigenous Music Awards Hall of Fame (2018), and the Tamworth Country Music Galaxy of Stars (2022).
Roger’s musical journey spans nearly half a century, as a child singing Gospel with his mother in the church choir, hitting the road solo as a young man in his 20s, and touring in his late 30s - 40s with his family band, ‘Euraba’ - named after the healing plant ‘Eurah’. At 65 he began to co- write his own stories and songs. This forthcoming album is the outcome of this more recent adventure.
