Album Notes

Robert Steven Williams writes fiction by day, songs by night.

I Am Not My Job is Robert's first CD and features Rachel Z, the keyboard player from Peter Gabriel's touring band, as well as Sloan Wainwright on background harmonies. The actor, Kier Dullea, provides voiceovers on two songs -- Kier was Captain Bowman in Stanley Kubrik's 2001.

Many of these tracks have companion short stories. Two have already been published and posted on web sites. To learn more visit Robert's web site where hundreds visit each week to read his essays:
