Jimmy Rogers (June 3, 1924 – December 19, 1997) was an American Chicago blues singer, guitarist and harmonica player, best known for his work as a member of Muddy Waters's band in the early 1950s. He also had a solo career and recorded several popular blues songs, including "That's All Right" (now a blues standard), "Chicago Bound", "Walking by Myself" (his sole R&B chart appearance), and "Rock This House". He withdrew from the music industry at the end of the 1950s but returned to recording and touring in the 1970s.

In the late 1950s, as interest in the blues waned, he gradually withdrew from the music industry.In the early 1960s, Rogers briefly worked as a member of Howling Wolf's band, before quitting the music business altogether for almost a decade.
In 1995, Rogers was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame. Rogers died of colon cancer in Chicago in 1997.
