Making a Scene Presents Gerry Casey’s Interview with Jamiah Denzel Rogers

Deacon Denzel and Dirty Church is the kind of band that doesn’t just play a set — they build a room, light it up, and then invite everybody inside. Rooted in the sweat-and-soul tradition of rock, blues, funk, and gospel, their sound feels like a late-night revival meeting colliding with a barroom jam: gritty, joyful, and impossible to fake.

At the center of that storm is Jamiah Denzel Rogers, the band’s heartbeat and chief spark. Whether he’s leading the charge vocally, shaping the groove, or pulling the band into a new dynamic mid-song, Jamiah brings a rare mix of command and connection. He doesn’t perform at an audience — he performs with them. His presence is equal parts fire and finesse: soulful when the song needs truth, fierce when it needs bite, and always grounded in a real emotional point. In a band built on energy, Jamiah is the one who turns raw intensity into meaning.

Deacon Denzel and Dirty Church thrive on the tension between polish and danger. Their songs can swing from swaggering funk to stomping blues-rock, from smoky ballads to full-throttle shout-alongs, without ever losing the thread. That’s because the band plays like a unit — tight enough to hit hard, loose enough to take chances — and Jamiah is often the compass that keeps those turns feeling intentional instead of chaotic.

Live, Dirty Church is where the name makes sense. It feels communal, loud, and cathartic — the kind of show where the crowd stops being “the crowd” and becomes part of the experience. Jamiah’s ability to build trust in a room is a big reason why. He knows when to push, when to pause, and when to let a moment breathe so it lands.

Deacon Denzel and Dirty Church aren’t chasing trends. They’re building a sound with roots, grit, and spirit — and with Jamiah Rogers up front, they deliver it with the kind of conviction you can’t teach and can’t ignore.
