“(Robley’s) gothic, orchestral indie-pop is sure to leave heads spinning with its unique and haunting sound.” – NPR

“Poetic, evocative.” – LA Times

“A spirited musical presence.” – Performer Magazine


With his 5th album THE GREAT MAKE BELIEVER, award-winning poet and songwriter Chris Robley breaks five years of musical silence with a collection of raw, indie-pop and Americana songs for guilty-hearted heartbreakers. 

The production is a departure from the densely layered arrangements of Robley's past albums, and THE GREAT MAKE BELIEVER was recorded mostly live in the living room of a seaside house in Oregon.

All songs performed and arranged by:

Anders Bergstrom – drums
Paul Brainard – pedal steel
Bob Dunham – electric guitar
Naomi Hooley - vocals
Arthur Parker – bass
Chris Robley – vocals, acoustic guitar, piano and keyboards
Rob Stroup – vocals and percussion

All songs written by Chris Robley

Welcome to The Diamond.

Stay tuned, stay true.

Reposts for days. Hope you find somethin' you enjoy. :)

There is so much talent and variety here, and most of the people are pretty cool too. I love being part of this community. Listening to your music and being heard in return is enough.

Still reading? OK I'm gonna muse a bit. It's hard to fully convey how much this forum has meant to me. There are people I've never met that feel very much like old friends -- and in a very real way they are.
If I follow someone I make every effort to listen to and support their efforts. It's certainly not a transactional relationship but I do tend to limit my follows to people who engage in mutual listening and engagement. If you listen and leave a comment I always try to listen to *your* music when responding! If you follow at random without any feedback I hope you get something out of that too... ; )
