Some Guy Named Robb a.k.a. Robb McCormick is an award-winning Singer-Songwriter, multi-instrumental, Author, Blogger, Poet, Guest Speaker who is native to Arkansas.​ He grew up spending his summers playing music in Colorado and has since traveled the world continuing to write record and play his own particular style of music. 

Husband to one, father to two, friend to many, Robb has recently been on tour across the ocean in the United Kingdom, in England and France, as well as touring from coast to coast.

Growing up in a small-town in the foothills of the Ozarks, a young Robb McCormick fell in love with his father’s vinyl record collection. His father, a former DJ in the 1960's and 70's, he had an impressive assortment of titles.  From Roberta Flack to Duke Ellington, from Mavis Staples and the Ronettes, 60’s pop and soul, Motown, and of course, singer songwriters galore; Paul Simon, Elton John, Bernie Taupin, Neil Diamond, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, and so many more.

In his teens he was awakened to a new world of music. Robb found acts like The Cure, Leonard Cohen, Sting & the Police, Depeche Mode, The Replacement, The Ramones, Bob Marley & the Wailers, U2 & Ani DiFranco. Every genre had something to offer. And today, the word Americana has become the umbrella genre for musicians like Robb who can’t be nailed down to one specific musical category.

Robb went from playing in his high school rock band, “sympathy”, to majoring in music in college only to go his own way into songwriting and performance. Arkansas is well known for country music, but Robb’s music never fit that description. After his first indie-folk-rock release, “The Irresponsibles Years” he branched out and began touring. He was approached by indie and even major record labels but surprisingly, he weighed their offers and politely turned them down.  

Looking back, it was one of the best decisions in his life. As he watched friends say yes to record deals they would later sue to get released from, Robb continued to independently tour and self-release albums. It's been over 27 years of being called by his stage moniker, Some Guy Named Robb, he has managed to do what so few musicians have been able to do: write and record songs and perform them full time.

His songs speak to the human heart. Some silly, like his multi million streamed ‘Death by Panda’ or the folky ‘Just Shut Up and Play Guitar’ and some of his songs are downright chilling like ‘The Sinking of the USS America’ or his multi-award winning ‘Something to Say’.  He’s a hard songwriter to fit into a box. It’s best to enjoy whatever he serves up. I’ve never seen the same “Some Guy Named Robb” show twice.

Always different songs, different covers, different variations and iterations.  

Touring full-time up until the pandemic, Robb switched to online performances and survived off the kindness and generosity of folks all across the world via tips, donations, and Patreon. It was the pandemic that broke Robb open to the world. Everyone was trapped indoors and from day one, Robb was performing for them, making new fans.

His music has been streamed millions of times. His songs have penetrated the heart of listeners of all ages, universally. His videos on social media have been shared countlessly, and his fanbase is global.

From private or corporate events, to house concerts to venues, from churches to prisons, Robb continues to seek out Truth for his music & lyrics and a kind audience and place with which to share them.

In his own words:  

“The best shows are when I get to connect with the audience. When they are with me and I’m with them and we get to share a special moment together. Most musicians will tell you we perform music to make connections. That’s me. The best room is one who has come to have fun, to surrender to the evening and see where it may take us. From tears to laughter. From clapping hands to singing along with me.

I live for those musical moments.”
