About

Roger McGuinn aka Jim McGuinn (born July 13, 1942, Chicago, Illinois, USA) is an American rock musician. He is best known for being the lead singer and lead guitarist of The Byrds.

Until 1967 he went by the name Jim McGuinn professionally and personally. Then, influenced by the spiritual movement Subud which (according to statements McGuinn himself made in an interview for Rolling Stone) ascribes importance to "one's name vibrating with one's spirit", he legally changed his name to James Roger McGuinn and thereafter went by the name Roger McGuinn.

Note: Please assign credits that either are the surname alone (or misspellings thereof) or include the forename Roger (or its initial) to this profile as it reflects the name change.
