The SpeakUsCorner Trio is a small Jazz group performing traditional standard tunes with our own arrangements and at times we incorporate some of the more popular songs from other genres as well as including the Fusion side of Jazz, some of which are our own original compositions. We also transform into a Quartet with the inclusion of a resident Singer which allows us to expands, the repertoire we perform in several tasteful directions.

Roje is a seasoned piano/keyboard player and composer with a vast experience and repertoire in piano bar projects.
 
Music surrounded him from the early age of 7 when he started taking piano and violin lessons.

In 2003 he moved to Cluj-Napoca, the unofficial
capital of Transylvania, where he had his first appearance on stage with the band Camelot, 
with whom he performed several concerts.


In the autumn of 2004 Roje became a member of the rock band CASH, 
along with whom he composed several pieces and performed numerous concerts across Romania. 
In parallel with this, the artist composed and orchestrated with known artists such as: 
Emeric Imre, Mircea Baniciu, Vasile Seicaru, Florin Chilian, Razvan Krivach, Magda Puscas, 
Tatiana Stepa, Emilian Onciu, Vali Moldovan, the bands Seven and Slut.
In the summer of 2005 he joined the band Hazard. Between 2005 - 2012 the band had over 800 live
performances on high scale stages, clubs and private events. 

In September 2007 the known singer Aminda joined the band and soon the piano bar project Pianette
arised, which will be a great success. 
From then on they will give a lot of concerts and have several TV appearances.
In the winter of 2010, along with Sandy Deac (Desperado) he initiated the Speak Floyd project,
 a tribute to Pink Floyd.
In December 2010 the artist gave life to his first composition draft which combines sound 
with visual art, with the great artist Adriana Jebeleanu. Inspired by this, 
he composed a series of works for piano and so the Blind Deaf Mute conceptual sound was born.
In April 2012, Roje joined the band Electroshock in Cologne Germany.
In April 2013 Roje recorded the keyboard parts for the third album of Hightlight 
Kenosis called The Shield of Faith.

Between April and December 2013, Roje also performed with Violet Radio, 
Ana Suruniuc, Oana Stoica (ex Trupa Veche) and recorded the keyboard tracks for different 
songs with Radu Marinescu, Hans Knall, The John McIain Band.
In 2014 Roje relocated to Scotland where he eventually established his own studio, 
Almond Valley Studio, and started working with TPot Studio.

As musical taste, in time, metal was predominant and still prevails, but being a musician 
Roje discovers and absorbs all that is quality in art and especially in music. He is able to play 
anything from the strong but flexible sound of jazz to classic rock.

British-Nigerian musician, composer, music producer.
