Benjamin Dakota Rogers is a Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose music blends folk, country, and roots traditions with a modern independent approach. He has built a growing audience not only through his songs, but through the way he shares his work online and connects directly with listeners.

In this conversation, Benjamin talks about how he got started making music, recording and filming from his barn studio, and how platforms like TikTok helped open doors for an independent artist. We also discuss touring, building an audience without a major label, and the creative process behind the album Painthorse.

It's a conversation about songwriting, independence, persistence, and finding new ways to build a career around original music.
