A Connecticut native, Robbie is a talented multi-instrumentalist who attended the Berklee College of Music. He apprenticed with Grammy-nominated R&B producer Kashif and went on to become a popular session musician, recording with Case, Calvin Richardson, and Philip Bailey. Robbie has performed as a professional background vocalist and multi-instrumentalist in several World Tours with various major recording artists (Surface, P.M. Dawn, Jimmie Vaughn, and many others); several national and international television appearances (The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Arsenio Hall Show and others); several major CD's; and music videos. In addition, Robbie has consistently been involved with various local youth and community organizations. Since his first tour in 1989, he has given scholarships to students wishing to pursue music degrees in colleges and universities. He created a regional award-winning teen employment program for the Stamford YMCA and has been trained as a crisis intervention counselor by the American Red Cross in Bridgeport, CT. His work has garnered him organizational recognition and several civic awards; including a Key to the City of Stamford in 1989 for his community service to youth under Mayor Thomas Serani. In 2016, the Bartlett was thrilled to have Robbie perform in our Summer Concert Series.
