Biography
Born the only daughter of an Air Force sergeant, Robin
grew up along the Rhine River in a small German village. With no American
television and too much time on her hands, she quickly gravitated toward
an old beat up guitar and the book "Learn To Play the Guitar in Ten Days." It
was then that her creative journey was launched. "Not a day went by
when my parents weren't playing the likes of Joni Mitchell, John Coltrane,
Wes Montgomery, Crosby Stills & Nash, and Nancy Wilson records. I just
soaked in those sounds". Once Robin returned to the States she set
her sights on New York City and immediately following college graduation
moved to the Big Apple. It was in those first years that time seasoned
her voice and experience seasoned the artist.
Since making her musical debut with an acclaimed collection of songs in
her first CD One Foot Barefoot, she's won the hearts of many and is being
recognized as a featured artist on television. Her song Hard Left debuted

artist on KDFW, Fox 4 Good Day in March. Robin was also featured on CNBC
television and has appeared in Acoustic Guitar Magazine, PC Magazine, and
Mac World Magazine. Robin has won the hearts of many Internet listeners
worldwide. Robin's fans voted Sayin Goodbye as the #1 Jazz song on mp3.com
