Nile Gregory Rodgers (born September 19, 1952, New York City) is an American musician, producer, composer, arranger, and guitarist. He is perhaps best known as the lead guitarist and founding member of the band Chic, which has been active variously since 1976.
Although he recorded four solo act albums throughout the 80s and the 90s, Rodgers found more success in collaboration as producer and performer with many artists including Diana Ross, David Bowie, Duran Duran, Madonna, and Daft Punk.
