I hate musical classifications!
Robin is a singer songwriter born in the UK who moved out to the USA 5 or 6 years ago.
He has recorded two solo CDs of original compositions on his 24 track digital home studio. He's a multi-instrumentalist who sings, plays keyboards, guitar and sax and programs, engineers and mixes all his stuff too.
The studio is bulit around 24 track ADAT, with loads of nice "real" outboard gear (Lexicon, TC Electronics etc), lots of synths including the excellent Korg Karma, loads of guitars, including a Brian Moore MIDI Guitar, some nice mics (Neumann TLM 103 etc).
He also plays live on his own or in various different combos.
He's available for interesting and challeging projects!!
Robin also works for Sibelius Software, one of the world's best music software companies.

None that do the range of stuff I do, but in singer-songwriter terms, I guess it'd be someone like David Gray. In "classical" terms, it would be Herbert Howells or William Walton.

Influences

Dylan, Neil Young, Yes, Stravinsky, Bach, Pat Metheny, Aaron Neville, Josquin, Charpentier, The Enid and Steely Dan
