Hailed as "a master flatpicker" (Sing Out!) and "Celtic flatpicking hero" (Folk Roots (U.K.) Robin is also one of a handful of masters on both acoutic guitar, mandolin, and cittern (bouzouki), a flat-backed double-strung instrument.
He roams the musical landscape with a wide palette of skills, bringing his unique vision of influences to Celtic music and American Roots music. Hear a hard-driving flatpicker, a lyrical fingerstyle guitarist and an old-time swing fiddler, all in one.
Dazzling spirit... he offers not just virtuosity for the sake of virtuosity, but also the sensibility of one on a quest between past and present, traditional and modern.
