Very personal entertainer for the birthday Queen overall my guests and I had a Wonderful birthday masquerade party also loved the band. Would hire him again and again Thanks Roderick 😍🤩
Response from Roderick Harper:
Thank you so much for your kind words! We enjoyed performing for you!
Roderick was amazing! He took our event to the next level and made it perfect.
Roderick and his band played for us on 10/1/21 and I could not be happier. Roderick has an incredible voice and they were just perfect for our party. So many guests went out of their way to tell me how much they loved the band. Must mention that the event was rescheduled three times spanning one and a half years and each time Roderick immediately answered my emails, always positive, easing any worries that he would not be available. Such a kind person with amazing talent. You will not regret booking Roderick for your event!
Response from Roderick Harper:
That you so much! It was an honor to perform at your wonderful event.

Roderick’s has been singing almost as long as he has been speaking. In school, he formed and was part of numerous jazz groups. One of those groups was Alvin Batiste and the Jazzstranauts. This afforded him the opportunity to come to the attention of jazz pianist Ellis Marsalis. With the recommendation of Batiste, Roderick was invited to sing with Marsalis. This led him to land a featured spot in the Ellis Marsalis Quartet.
Being under the experienced hand of Marsalis brought about many opportunities for Roderick to perform with the likes of Jon Hendricks of Lambert, Hendricks & Ross, Betty Carter, Dizzy Gillespie, Wynton, Branford, Delfeayo and Jason Marsalis, Joe Sample, Danny Barker, Kent Jordan, Mark Whitfield, Joe Lavano, Bobby Watson, Marcus Roberts, Cyrus Chestnut, Nicholas Payton, Wessel Anderson, James Carter, Stephen Scott, Brian Blade, Max Roach, Terence Blanchard, The Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra and many others.
Since that time he has recorded five CD’s: Beautiful Beginnings, produced by Delfeayo Marsalis and The Essence Of… produced by Grammy Award Winner, Nicholas Payton, Perfect Imperfections, self produced, E•VOLV•ING, self produced and the R&B project, Back To Love. His voice was apart of the HBO Soul of the Game, the BET BlacKout, a featured vocalist on Kent Jordan’s CD, Out of this World, as well as, a Folgers Coffee and McDonalds Commercial and the UMC television series, Terror Lake Drive.
