SING IT !!

Rob was raised taking "classical" music lesson, but has always felt a passion for a wide variety of styles in music. Although Rob enjoys playing well known songs -- his calling is to perform his own material. Some of his pieces revolve around his own life-experiences and relationships. Others are written from his imagination, his ideals and his personal views.

This past meeting was a Showcase for Rob's music writing talents -- both the tunes and the lyrics.

After performing 4 original songs, Rob was wiling to take questions from the others in the group. We ended up having a "round-table" discussion that cycled from lyrics writing -- to past influences -- to educational training -- to how everyone sees and interprets each other's art in a different, unique way.

It's amazing to hear how similar -- and how drastically different -- we each think and express our views.

Rob enjoys other forms of art as well as playing and writing music. He's experimented with painting, stenciling and other modes of expression. We're hoping to get him to bring some samples of his work to future meetings.
