Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers grew up loving both music and writing. These two passions led Rodgers to become a songwriter, as well as helping to launch 'Acoustic Guitar' magazine and writing a variety of music commentary. While writing articles and books, he has kept active as a singer-songwriter, now in the Syracuse, New York area. Having a variety of skills has been very handy in an age where musicians are often booking and promoting themselves. Rodgers brought Wendy Ramsay and his strumstick to Beehive Studios in Saranac, New York, for an interview and video performance.
