Originally from Birmingham, Alabama.... Moved to Orlando for 12 years or so, then headed out to Las Vegas for 3, then back to Orlando, then back to Vegas as of June '12. No real music background, other than a love for music of all types. I have a few guitars that i don't play, I just play with. On my own since I was 15, I got lots of s#!+ to write about. Hopefully I can find some tracks to hook up with my stories.... Some are happy, some are sad and some just say "I don't give a fu**"
My writings are influenced by my personal life experiences... From being an only child in a divorced family, to moving around ALOT, to being on my own from a very early age, to run in's with the law, to having a son (then losing him), to going through a divorce, to finding "true love" and walking away from it, to starting all over again (twice).
So, from early on in life, I found myself through music, humor and a tough exterior... In other words, I love music, cherish friends and loved ones, I am funny as hell to be around, but don't fu** with me.
My songs don't all fit in any one particular genre of music. It all depends on what I feel for that particular story. Could be hip hop, rock, blues, country or whatever.
So, why the name "Rob Solo"??? That pretty much sums up how my life has been. Divorced parents, relationships gone bad, and in the end, the only person I could ever count on was myself. It hasn't always been an easy life, but I made it SOLO.
Nothing notable.
Yes, love it. My most special moment was doing a show in Orlando when I got my 5 year old son on stage with me to sing a song I wrote about him. It's called "Make it there at last"... It was an awesome moment.
