219-Word Bio
Glen Roethel is an award-winning singer-songwriter, sought-after entertainer, accompanist (guitar and vocal), music producer, harmony arranger, teacher, and mentor. Blending influences from thousands of pop, folk, jazz, and rock songs in his repertoire, Roethel delivers a unique one-man-band sound to his own tender ballads, personal memoires, light-hearted tunes, and soaring anthems which grace his three self-produced solo CDs plus recordings for other groups and artists. Whether performing solo, in ensemble with his acoustic trio, Us!or accompanying artist Sloan Wainwright, his rich baritone-tenor voice and “Angel” Gibson guitar complement perfectly. In 2007, Penny Nichols asked Roethel to teach at SummerSongs, opening the door to a wave of invitations. Today Roethel brings his creative curricula to some of the nation’s leading music retreats including David Roth’s Cape Cod Songwriters Retreat, Cosy Sheridan’s Moab Folk Camp and The Song Sessions, and the emPower Music Festival. He also entertains at trade shows, conferences, parties, and festivals, sings his songs at venues and house concerts across the US, and co-leads annual music-oriented trips to Ireland. Between shows and events Roethel uses his spare time to empower hit singer-songwriters across the country with design, marketing, and livestream concert support. ~ glenroethel.com
