notes
Robin Wynn has been singing since she was a wee tot. From commercial jingles to choir, singing has come naturally to this native rural Virginian since the time she could talk. Picking up the guitar and writing her own songs would come later, however, and when it did, an audience soon followed. Playing at an open mic night in downtown Charlottesville, Robin met Mark Goldstein, the future producer, engineer and lead musician of her first album. Robin describes learning guitar and testing her songs in front of an audience as "the most gut wrenching, vulnerable thing I have ever done, and still do". A few years would intervene before the album would come to fruition. The innate hum of the songwriting beast within her would not cease, however, and so upon the insistence and support of her friends and fellow musicians, Robin set to work on her first album, Oblivion.
Recently asked by a radio interviewer about the dark implications of the title Oblivion, Robin responded that it was not necessarily a darkness that she was implying by the title, but more of a carefree abandonment. Robin has stated on more than one occasion that taking her love of music out into the world has been, and will continue to be, a curious Alice in Wonderland-like venture. "Sure it's frightening to allow the world into your most embarrassing and exhilarating places, places where you fall flat on your face, and places where you feel bigger than the sky itself, but in the end, if it's the place where you feel the most alive, it's worth the risk".
Oblivion is the first release off of OneTrueVibe Records, of which Robin is co-founder and owner.

My new favorite CD in my collection, I sent a few songs to some friends and they
author: FotiniHeard Robyn on the radio while at work, called my boyfriend, made him go to her show that night and bought the CD the next day. I'm so glad I was tuning into WNRN that morning, this CD is wonderful and her live performance is even better.
good cd! spirited and emotional without being moody
author: TimWow! This cd cooks from the get-go and moves emotionally with a spirit that is supported by the music. I look forward to more from this 'artist'.

author: robin rocksi just wanted to say that this cd is AWESOME. stick it to the man, robin! to anybody else, buy this cd! you won't regret it!
Easy to love. Yes, if I could sing like this I would have become one too!
author: kathy tatlerAll I can say to Robin is, go to your room and make art! This is a great cd and it deserves a listen. Robin has a quality that is not like every other new, female vocalist. It is exciting to hear new talent that is truly new and not recycled from someone else's style. Look for an upcoming review in Front Porch Fredericksburg!
Lovely
author: Karen MarcusVery lovely and heartfelt. I wish for you all the best on this journey.

author: kathyI found this album while listening to battlingbands.com and I am glad I did. The music is original and Robin delivers each song in a way that makes me want to be a part of it. Keep it up Robin! The sky is the limit, but don't let the industry dictate to you what to wear or how much skin to reveal. Be Dylan-esque in that you sing what you want, how you want and keep in control. That way you won't be just another flash in the pan.
