ABOUT THIS ALBUM


Album Notes
Neil Robertson began writing songs while trekking through South America and after 15 years performing and recording as a solo artist and with various bands, he has hundreds of original songs to his credit. His songs are strongly lyrical and influenced by a wide range of rock, pop, folk and blues music. His influences and heroes include singer/songwriter greats such as Bob Dylan, Neil Young and Paul Kelly, as well as bands such as Midnight Oil, REM, Crowded House and classic 60s and 70s rock and folk.

Based in Melbourne, Australia, Robertson continues to write, produce and record independently. His debut solo album "Wake Up The Dead" is his tenth independent CD release and his most powerful and accomplished work to date. Acting as writer, producer and recording and mixing engineer and with the help of a number of talented local singers and musicians, Robertson has made a powerful and relevant album for the 21st century.

Excellent Songwriting - A Winner
"Wake Up The Dead" by Neil Robertson is an excellent acoustic-based adult rock CD. Neil's songwriting is at the front of the list of the many admirable qualities of this CD. Neil's lyrics are clever and relevant, and his melodies are memorable and catchy. The musicianship and Neil's vocals are very good on this CD, and the band is tight. Furthermore, the production is clean, and well-suited for Neil's songwriting style, nicely mixing rock, pop and folk. “Rocking Down My Road” builds to a memorable, harmony-filled chorus, and features excellent lyrics. “Goodness Gracious” effectively adds harmonica and banjo to the mix to give the song more depth. “Change The World” is one of our favorite tracks, with relevant lyrics and an excellent build from acoustic-grooved verses to a harmony and hook-filled chorus. If you enjoy folk rock singer-songwriters, you'll enjoy this excellent CD.
