Keeping The Dream Live
Robert’s newest album - Keeping The Dream Alive - Available For Streaming!
In his sophomore EP - Keeping The Dream Alive - Robert uses a mixture of bluesy rock guitar, catchy melodies and metaphorical lyrics to tell stories about the pressures of making yourself in today’s society. It provides a beacon of light to follow for personal growth and development. He reminds us that you can still deliver a passionate and authentic message by grounding us in our roots.
Robert sharpened his skills for over eight years in Nashville, TN before returning home and setting up shop in Detroit, MI. He has collected a wide range of influences but great rock n’ roll songwriters like Tom Petty and The Beatles make up his foundation. Mix in the classic blues-rock guitar playing of legends like The Allman Brother’s Band and Jimi Hendrix with a dash of modern classics such as Jack White and Dan Auerbach, and you have Robert’s music at its best.
Keeping The Dream Alive draws from the real-world struggles of trying to make your dreams become a reality. Building off of the raw energy of his 2017 debut EP, Doozy, the Nashville and Detroit based artist expands his blue-collar edge with a more polished and nuanced sound. The title track of the EP “Keeping The Dream Alive” is soaked with classic vibes, heartfelt lyrics and gritty emotion. It provides an anthem for all of those working hard though these tough times and is destined to grab the ear of anyone who shares the same passion.
In this album Robert isn’t afraid to stare his biggest fears in the eye. The themes of change, passion, love and struggle are painted into every song with the brushes of blood, sweat and tears. The first track off of the album, “Detroit City”, provides us with another anthem, one centered around the important moments and mistakes of our lives. Set into the backdrop of a constantly changing city itself, this song showcases how these important moments shape us and our perspectives on life.
