Hi! I'm a 40 something year old Singer/Songwriter. I've been writing and performing Christian country since before the genre existed, I think! I also write country music- POSITIVE country music, none of that "tear in my beer" stuff.. well, maybe a little! I hope you like the songs, and are blessed by them. (Don't be TOO confused by the "Robb Hill".. it's an old stage name I no longer use... middle name, last name shortened, blah, blah, blah... but now I embrace my Don-li-ness.)
THE PRIMARY FOCUS of this site is to showcase my music for other artists to consider recording. I certainly appreciate those who enjoy my music, and those who download it, and if you're a recording artist looking for songs, please be welcome to browse around. I do realize that my technical recording and mastering skills aren't the best... but these songs are mostly meant to provide an example of how they COULD be recorded.
I am also available for providing music for churches, church groups, civic organizations, and the like, within a reasonable distance from the Minneapolis, MN area... including western Wisconsin and the surrounding areas.
In any case, contact me, and we'll yak.

Why this name?
Well, it's kinda like.. I was born with it, so I didn't have much of a chance of changing it.
Do you play live?
I play live mostly in church venues. I love playing live... it sure beats playing dead....
My most special moment was when I was singing in a Southern Gospel quartet while I was in college in the 80's, and our publicist booked us in in an urban Black church. For some reason, they really didn't seem to be too much into Southern Gospel.. reminded me of the Blues Brothers... BUT... just like in the Blues Brothers, we, as my army buddies used to say, adapted and overcame! It was fun.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think the MP3 revolution has.. uh... revolutionized the music industry, for the better. Anyone can get their music out. Which, well, may or may not be a good thing.... hmmmm....
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Maybe... then again, maybe not... the real question is, would they sign a contract with ME?????? Actually, I'm more interested in the songwriting side of the biz... The sad truth is, I'm just too old and worn out to want to go that route. But if you're LOOKING for a song to record, well, have your people call my people, and let's do lunch! Or, does that only work in LA?
Band History:
I started writing and singing music when I was a younger teen... I played semi-professionally in Portland Oregon in the late 70's and early 80's.. then for some reason I joined the army. They didn't have a songwriter job open, though... so I didn't really start doing much again until the late 80's. In 1998, I was able to compete in the Nationally known Jimmy Dean Country Music Showdown... lost to the son of richest man in the county... hmmm... still haven't figured that one out...
Your influences?
My musical influences have included Gordon Lightfoot, the Eagles, Stephen Curtis Chapman, and even a little bit of Stevie Ray thrown in for good measure.... on the instrumental side, Tangerine Dream, Yanni, and others like that....
Favorite spot?
Anywhere it's just me and my guitar and the people I love... But Portland, OR, where I grew up, always has a special place in my heart.
Equipment used:
I use a Yamaha acoustic guitar... a Behringer USB electric guitar, and a whole lot of Band in A Box... uh... Sony Vegas; Cakewalk Sonar Pro; Sound Forge; ...whatever does the trick.
Anything else...?
If you're from the Wisconsin/Minnesota area and would like me to perform/minister anywhere within a reasonable distance, have your people email my people, and we'll do lunch... or just email me direct, that would be better! If you're a publisher, band, or individual who would be interested in recording and/or performing these songs, contact me, and we'll talk.
