Biography

“Far from an over night sensation, multi instrumentalist and songwriter Rob Martin grew up playing drums at the age of 3. 
Fast forward to age 16, Rob moved out of his parents home to study Drums in high school. Shortly after, he stumbled across an opportunity as an actor, playing the lead role of a drummer in a musical. Rob moved to Stockholm to continue to work with director Ulf Larsson. But during his move, Mr. Larsson tragically passed away. Regardless Rob continued his journey to Stockholm. 
Being in the critical age of young adulthood, Rob soon found his determination and focus wasn’t shared by other band mates in countless bands and projects. 
2013 Rob together with a group of friends created the band Maysin. Being 2 drummers but no singer Mr. Martin grabbed the mic resulting in the band recording an EP. Watching the success of Maysin rise through the roof while members of the band left one by one, due to different outlooks and dreams, Rob went back to his hometown in 2014, rented a small studio and started working on new material of his own. The number of songs grew quickly to be suiting a full length album. 
 Instead of crowdfunding, scholarships or loans, Rob moved to Norway to fund the entire album through 2 years of hard work by putting in hours of luggage handling at Oslo Airport. Every other hour was spent in the studio, creating his music. 
The debut single ”Vagabonds” is the first single of the upcoming album.”
