Roger Meade Clyne

Roger founded the American band, The Refreshments, and signed to Mercury Records in 1994. Their debut album, "Fizzy Fuzzy, Big and Buzzy," started heating up the charts with a video on Mtv and a cult following across the US. Roger penned and the band performed the theme song to the hit cartoon, King of the Hill. Their sophomore album started with the woes of a management change at the label and they were forced to leave. With band member issues, Roger and his faithful drummer extraordinaire, PH Naffah, changed the band name to Roger Clyne and The Peacemakers and set out independently. Affectionately known as RCPM by their fans, the band has made 8 studio albums, created their own music festival in the Mexican beach town of Rocky Point south of the AZ border and started their own proprietary brand of ultra-premium tequila called, Canción ('song' in Spanish). Roger was called upon to write and record a victory song for his hometown MLB team, the Arizona Diamondbacks, in 2004 and he delivered! Relished by the team's fans, "The D-back's Swing" is played in the home stadium after every victory. RCPM was inducted into the AZ Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame in 2019. Still touring all over the US, they fly under the radar of corporate radio maintaining their fan-base and it is constantly growing. Their music festival, Circus Mexicus, is held every June along with smaller music events at their bar named, Banditos Cantina, after their radio hit from the Fizzy Fuzzy album. Fans of Roger's music count his positive, uplifting lyrics as literal help in getting through hard times or personal tragedy and refer to themselves as Peacemakers.
