Madeleine Roger

About

The artist

Madeleine Roger is a singer-songwriter, guitarist, record producer, and recording engineer based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Her current artist-controlled website identifies Winnipeg as her home, and a January 2026 interview independently describes her as Winnipeg-based while documenting her ongoing work with The Fretless. Her official tour page lists performances through November 2026, including a Winnipeg date, and her exact Apple Music and Spotify identities show current releases through Nerve (Extended) in August 2025. Roger's solo work draws from contemporary folk, acoustic roots, and singer-songwriter traditions, with close attention to lyric detail, melody, voice, and guitar. Her debut solo album, Cottonwood, arrived in 2018. She co-produced and co-engineered that recording with Lloyd Peterson at Paintbox Recording in Winnipeg, a supported professional role that earned the pair a 2019 Western Canadian Music Awards nomination for Producer of the Year. The exact Spotify identity contains ten principal album and single containers from August 2018 through August 2025. Under Spotify's provider classifications, the catalog comprises three albums and seven singles. Representative releases include Cottonwood, Nerve, and Nerve (Extended). Nerve was produced by Josh Kaufman and recorded by D. James Goodwin, while Roger remained the songwriter, vocalist, and acoustic guitarist at the centre of the sessions. She also appears as a vocalist and co-writer with The Fretless, including three songs on the quartet's 2024 album Glasswing. Her documented honours include winning the 2025 Grassy Hill New Folk Competition at the Kerrville Folk Festival, the 2019 producer nomination for Cottonwood, and a 2020 Canadian Folk Music Awards nomination for English Songwriter of the Year. Birthday Cake Records is identified as her worldwide label on the current official contact page and in the 2024 and 2025 release metadata. Canadian booking is currently routed through Adrian Gross, but MusicList does not republish any direct email addresses from the contact page. Professional inquiries instead use the artist-controlled contact URL. The exact English and French payload was reviewed for identity, current Winnipeg residence, active status, catalog scope, production and engineering roles, achievements, professional relationships, safe contact routing, provider-attributed media, and translation quality.
