When Rodney was 10 his dad introduced him to the guitar and his early childhood influence was Stevie Ray Vaughan. As a restless and creative spirit, Rodney soon found out that any time he got grounded for causing a ruckus, he got to play his guitar without any interruptions. So, he found all sorts of creative ways to get himself grounded and reunited with his guitar.

In 2016 Rodney was invited to the most prestigious guitar festival in Europe; ‘Les Nuits de la Guitare de Patrimonio’ where he opens for legendary French singer and guitarist, Francis Cabrel. The impressed festival director dubs Rodney ‘The Discovery of Patrimonio’.

In 2018 Rodney catches the attention of Glastonbury Festival founder Michael Eavis who offers Rodney to headline the Glastonbury Extravaganza (the very next day!) at Glastonbury Abbey. It is a double bill alongside Tom Odell. The response is immediate and Rodney lands a spot on the coveted, at the Glastonbury festival Acoustic Stage. Rodney performs to a seam-splitting and fully crowded tent and the show goes down like a storm.

“Rodney Branigan is one of the most amazing artists you will ever see. Not simply because he is unique, but rather because he is impossibly talented” Music Connection Magazine
