If we are products of our upbringing and environments, then Rob Clores is the ultimate musical dynamo! Growing up in a household that immersed him in everything from jazz, country, R&B, show tunes and opera ... he eventually gravitated to piano and was classically trained at the Manhattan School of Music in New York City.
Rob honed his craft and has been a tried-and-true veteran of the New York City music scene for 30 years. He has performed and recorded with Jesse Malin, Charli XCX, The Black Crowes, Colin Hay, Tom Jones, Alejandro Escovedo, John Popper (Blues Traveler), and Little Steven Van Zandt among others. He also composes and scores for film, TV, and marketing campaigns through his company Radcat Productions.
Most recently, Rob has poured his heart and soul into his first solo EP Split Second Meltdown, an incredible alt-rock project featuring his songwriting, vocals, keys, lead guitar, and production. Our conversation dove into why Rob felt he needed to share these songs, the intricacies that go into writing and performing music, and what type of album he may do next.
