Known for his heartfelt songwriting and captivating live performances, Robert blends blues, folk, and Americana into a style that’s uniquely his own. Whether you're a longtime fan or a curious newcomer, this is your chance to experience one of the UK’s finest independent artists in the intimate setting of Bridport's favourite pub.“I was lucky as a kid. When I was 17 I got to tour with Dick Heckstall Smith, and later in my teens I toured the southern states for 6 months with the US funk rock outfit the Blast. It was a crazy learning curve in which I saw our promoter being shot and having Boy George's producer chasing us all over Houston thinking we were the next big thing and had free coke to burn!”
Whilst touring in New York last year, he was also approached by Alice Cooper’s Press agent and tour manager after they heard a particular track. Songs that are remembered the next day seem to be one of his main gifts.
Extensive travelling in Europe, North Africa and North America have enabled Robert to absorb the music and culture, and this emerges in subtle rootsy nuances within his work.
Some obvious, some hidden to all but the expert ear.
