Love Triangle is Roger’s 7th solo release. This single is an immersive trifecta of art, music and culinary collaboration – a real Love Triangle.
This song explores the nature of infidelity and its texture, both as self sabotage and the turmoil of love. Trapped in the tension between softness and hardness, deep love and betrayal, and compassion vs narcissism; this song places you in the emotional midst of this predicament.
The visual art, music, and accompanying video, are integral to this immersive experience. The culinary component is connected to a trio of Ontario Craft Beers brewed in collaboration with Lovebird Brewing Co. and features original Roger Mooking artwork for each beer label, completing the trio of music, culinary and art. A QR code drives to the song and music video, completing the interactive and immersive Roger Mooking Experience.
The lyrics of the song contain easter eggs that connect to the names of the beers, can you find them?
SoundBites is Rogers’ 6th solo release. This album is the audio inspiration for Curious Sounds – A Dialogue in Three Movements, a book written by Roger and celebrated author francesca ekwuyasi that is a celebration of chaos, visual art, storytelling and essays.
With SoundBites, no song is longer than 90 seconds to reinforce the albums frenetic concept. This album explores the human life cycle, from conception to end of life, in an increasingly attention deficit world.
The album is broken into three movements, The Learning (from conception to adolescence), The Living (the most dynamic and active phase of life), and The Leaving (reflective towards the end of life). Produced by Surgeon & The Butcher (@surgeonandbutcher), this 19 song adventure is both thoughtful and frantic.

Eat Your Words (2019) is Roger’s 4th studio release, a focused 9 song adventure. This body of work showcases Roger’s songwriting, production and performance skill; and is influenced by Trinidadian Calypso, Venezuelan vibes, classic hip hop, rock and funk to curate a musically kaleidoscopical experience.
Feedback Acoustic (2014) is a live, off the floor album containing 7 tracks from Roger’s album Feedback. The goal was to put 2 artists from different musical backgrounds together and let them loose for a few hours. Feedback Acoustic is an intimate and raw stripped down performance that captures the music’s most essential pieces.
Roger Mooking has travelled the world and everywhere he goes he finds that people share the same joys, the same sadness, the same frustrations and the same triumphs. With raw edges and rich dense stories at the centre, Feedback (2013) is a commentary of universal truths.
