WOW you had me confused! Roger was with the Refreshments, not the Replacements. I was thinking, "was there some short transitional period where the 'Mats lineup changed and I was...hibernating?"
I don't know him or the band. Rhett might be your best source on this: "Styles - Heartland Rock, Americana, Alternative Country-Rock, Alternative Pop/Rock"

Singer/songwriter Roger Clyne first made a name for himself while fronting the modern rock outfit the Refreshments during the post-grunge heyday of the '90s. "Banditos" was their biggest hit and an inviting cheeky pop anthem across mainstream and college radio during the summer of 1996. Success fell short for the band; after three albums, the Refreshments called it quits in 1997 and Clyne retreated to his Southwestern abode in Arizona to reflect. He found himself tinkering around with Americana and Latin beats. Soon, he and several musicians grouped together for Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers. Embracing his reflective side, which is both self-conscious and ambitious, Clyne molded a new musical creation. He, along with drummer P.H. Naffah, guitarist Steve Larson, bassist Danny White, and ex-Gin Blossoms guitarist Scott Johnson, introduced a twangy hard rock on 1999's Honky Tonk Union. Shows throughout the Southwest and Mexico kept the band busy â?? busy enough to issue a live album Real to Reel in fall 2001. Clyne took his lyrical poetics a step further for the band's second studio effort. Sonoran Hope & Madness, which was released in February 2002, combined a sultry mix of country and folk while sifting through Clyne's darkest work yet.
