BIOGRAPHY
Born: 1963 East London
Robert had piano lessons from an early age and soon gravitated to playing boogie and blues. At age 18 he bought his first organ and began playing with his first band on a semi-pro basis. Since then he has played with a number of bands as well as miscellaneous studio and session work.
Over the years he has played gigs as diverse as London's legendary Marquee club, The Small Faces Convention, Carnaby Street, the Harley Davidson Owners UK Rally and Halloween at Torture Garden fetish club!
During that time he has met and played with people such as Don Airey, Nick Simper (Deep Purple), Brian Auger, Nick Welsh (King Hammond) and Owen Edwards (Guitar Idol)
Known as a dynamic and intuitive player, Robert is available for session work, gigging bands, dep work or any interesting projects
