Rob Robinson

Singer-songwriter

Rob Robinson is an American singer-songwriter, musician and recording artist. A lifelong drummer, Robinson began crafting his simple song ideas well into a sophisticated musical journey. While growing up in the suburbs of Philadelphia, he began pouring his lyrical offerings into some original projects before realizing that an acoustic six string was in his immediate future. As he continued to play the drums with some of Philadelphia's trending artists, including roots based curator Ben Vaughn, Rob was slowly developing his own sweet catchy hooks in the background of an often dark and meandering life. After years of failed relationships and 4-track demos, the singer-songwriter finally released his first album, Catchin' A Ride (2013).  The seven song tribute to his wayward travels received some attention in smaller markets but more importantly got him on the road doing several coffeehouse tours. Two years later came the release of a single and B-side titled  Walk Away-I Believe (2015).  The production was more direct and hard hitting and his sound began to settle into a country-rock genre. Rob's deeper and soulful vocal stylings were beginning to transcend a warmer type of delivery. In 2020 the Philly native was back in the studio this time in Dallas, Texas with Producer Pete Miller. The new album, "Down This Highway", is again a lean toward country-rock and features great performances from veteran session musicians including guitarist Larry Rulondo and multi instrumentalist Milo Deering. Robinson has been living and recording in Texas since 2019. The new album is set to release on all major digital platforms beginning April 22, 2022.

Press / Reviews

"Heart on Fire"  by Rob Robinson - Reviewed by Gibson Goff 

The first rule of successful songwriting is you have to walk the walk if you talk the talk. Some songwriters can get by with a very vivid imagination. Rob writes from the heart. 

Rob has gathered together a very talented producer along with seasoned musicians to create a hard driving perspective on love and relationships in his latest release, “Heart on Fire.” 

The timbre of his voice gives strength to his message. The tempo and beat drive it home. 

It's a melody that my wife and I find ourselves humming as we go through our day. And don't be surprised if you catch yourself playing a little air guitar to the riffs. It's that strong. 

This is another great song from Rob. His songwriting, musical skills and his voice just keep getting better with time. And this song proves that.
