Band/artist history
I began my career in music over 20 years ago in the thumb area of Michigan competing in talent contests. Moved to Casper WY in 1982 where I continued to play wherever I could find a stage. Started my professional career in 1991, since then I've been performing on the average 50 or so shows a year as a single act. I'd love to get into the band scene someday, for now the single act is still working ok. In the summer of 2001 the stars must have been lined up just right as I received full backing to cut my first professional CD of my music titled "Drive-In Nights" in Denver, CO. A dream come true for this Singer/Songwriter!
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I perform throughout Wyoming, South Dakota & Colorado... for private parties, festivals, receptions etc. Special Moments; My 15 minutes of fame....ok maybe 30 or so... I opened for Country Music Stars David Lee Murphy and David Ball at the Everglades Seafood Festival in Everglades City, FL in 1996 & 1997. Also... in August of 96 a pilot demo of my song "I Need A Vacation" ended up with an Honorable Mention In Country Music Row Magazine. Hey it's all a start and I'm proud of what I've been able to accompolish!
Your musical influences
Growing up in MI I was surrounded by the Country Music of the 70's... the songwriters, Mac Davis, Bobby Goldsborro, John Denver etc. The ballads that told stories. However, by my teens I began to listen more to Bob Seger, Neil Diamond, John Mellencamp & Rick Springfield, these became my music influnces and led to my songwriting having a harder edge, more of a Country-Rock feel.
What equipment do you use?
As for equipment, I use Peavey amps & speakers and my black Takamine Guitar on stage.
Anything else?
It's not necessary to understand music; it's only necessary that we enjoy it... I truly enjoy writing my songs and performing wherever I can find a stage! Most of all I Thank God for giving me the opportunity to do so. One last comment... live is one big circle & music is at the center! Ain't It Great!

Hey Rob, I listened to your song "Drive-In Nights"...I am of newer generation, so I can't relate much to the song, but I'm sure my mother and father could...i enjoyed the whole feel of the song, very professional sound...keep up the great work, I voted it HOT to push it up higher in the country charts.I would like for you to listen to my instrumental sometime, thanks and much respect...

Listening to DRIVE IN NIGHTS. I like your country voice. If you have some time give my music a listen love to hear what you think.
Hey, I stopped by your page for a reason. I'm looking for artists who don't have much or any affiliation with rap and hip hop, and even though I am a rap/hip hop artist there is a reason for that. Everyone is lookinf for artists within their genre but I like to expand my music. I am trying to find some artists for more slow type rap songs, the non violent types, the real life issues type. I have 3 songs you could listen to if you want to see the style I am talking about and see if you're interested in working with me. "Love", "Thank You" and "How This Story Goes". If you're not interested, I understand, but if you are, please hit me up and let me know because I actually have a song open that I can't find a singer for and it's about a past relationship I went through. Thanks for your time!
Great songs man! I voted for your song Drive In Nights. I'll keep listening.
