Roger Patrick Martin Quigley (17 March 1969 – 18 August 2020) was an English singer-songwriter from Manchester, England, and one-half of the indie pop duo known as The Montgolfier Brothers.
Roger Quigley was born in Salford and studied fine art at the University of Sunderland.[1]
He released multiple recordings, including two LPs — 1969 Till God Knows When, and Quigley's Point. The latter effort was recorded under the 'At Swim Two Birds' moniker, a name was inspired by At Swim-Two-Birds, a classic tome by the Irish novelist, Flann O'Brien.
Quigley died suddenly on 18 August 2020. An obituary was published two weeks later in the Guardian.[2][3]
