The Artful Roger is piano-based music artist from Dublin, Ireland. Blending his classical influences with current pop/rock trends, his music evokes the emotion of real-life experiences. He performs with a relaxed, charismatic style, and draws in the audience with his words – both spoken and sung.
Every Time, the debut single, was released in 2016 under the name Roger Berkeley. Having hit more than 175,000 hits on YouTube in the first few months, Roger went on to pursue other personal projects.
Distractions off his chest, Berkeley is back on the scene as The Artful Roger, ready to pick up where he left off.

The Artful Roger’s musical journey started properly when he stumbled across a video of Queen’s Live Aid performance from 1985. He was completely enthralled by Freddie Mercury’s onstage antics, from his interaction with the huge crowd to his sheer confidence. Already familiar with Queen’s musical masterpieces (Bohemian Rhapsody, Somebody To Love, and others), and developing an interest in the alternative rock group,  Muse, he decided to become a professional music artist. Years later, he is realising his dream.
Primarily a classical pianist – a former UCD Ad Astra Performing Arts Scholar – Roger also plays guitar and sings. His songs are generally written about personal experiences and interests. Laden with metaphors and symbolism, the songs usually feature an abstract take on events, fuelled by a range of powerful emotions.

Having secured a sponsorship deal for the music video, Roger released his debut single, Every Time,  in October 2016. The video has received more than 178,000 hits on  YouTube and attracted press coverage on three continents. The song is available on all online music outlets.

As Roger has developed as an artist, he has brought his various strengths out to the fore and mixes them together, both onstage and in  the studio. By combining a wide range of musical styles and injecting his charismatic character, Roger Berkeley has become The Artful Roger.

The Pro-Life Campaign (PLC) is a human rights group, drawing its support from a cross-section of Irish society. The Campaign promotes pro-life education and defends human life at all stages, from conception to natural death. It also campaigns for resources to support and assist pregnant women and those in need of healing after abortion.

My name is Sylvain Guinet, born in 1978 in France. I compose romantic and relaxing music. I like to express the emotions through the piano, joy or pain, I can talk to the world with a universal language, the music.
