Ben Fong-Torres is an American rock journalist, author, and broadcaster best known for his association with Rolling Stone magazine (through 1981) and the San Francisco Chronicle (from around 1982).
Roger is a vocalist and plays rhythm, lead guitar and bass for Moonalice, a band of seasoned musicians who feel that live music should be a communal experience where the listener and musicians feed and derive inspiration from each other.
Moonalice's songs try to speak to everyone, mixing a variety of genres with extended musical improvisations that evoke a sense of adventure and exploration. Moonalice invented Twittercast concerts, which are free broadcasts to fans over social networks. The band's single, "It's 4:20 Somewhere" has been downloaded more than 3 million times.
Moonalice broadcasts every show live via satellite in HTML 5, so that they can be enjoyed on iPhone, iPad or Android without an app. Moonalice has been granted a trademark on the term Moonalice Couch Tour® for their live broadcast service via MoonTunes which is enjoyed by hundreds of fans from around the world - the U.K., Sweden, Australia, Thailand and Japan to name a few!
