Guitar Boogie

Rooted bass lines and the wail of the guitar are staples of Rob's sound, influenced by Funkadelic, Santana and All Them Witches. Rob's music is loud, playful and a tad mismatched.
Suffolk born, Rob moved to London in 2018 to study at the Academy of Contemporary Music. Here his childhood love of rock grew until one fateful night in his student halls a friend introduced him to Funkadelic’s ‘Maggot Brain’ and he knew this was something else. How could one instrument carry such emotion? The guitar spoke directly to his soul and he knew what he had to do, fuse the groove of Funk with the wail of Rock. Since then he has played all around London culminating in two shows at the 02 Islington, and a radio show invitation. Things were looking good when rather inconsiderately someone on the other side of the world ate a bat.
A year later, in the middle of nowhere again, he is exploring Jazz and Soul, honouring his love for rock and funk and preparing to release his 2021 EP Dusk/Dawn.
