This week, I'm joined by Alberta's own rhinestone cowboy, Robert Adam! Rob & I have only been friends for about a year, but we've certainly helped each other get through some sh*t. Join us as we discuss queer country music, Jesus, BodyBreak and Alberta's mom, Country Queen Arlene! "Originally from the northern Alberta prairie town of Bonnyville, Robert combines a rural spirit of classic country with lyrics that offer more than surface meaning. Robert is sure to make his audience nostalgic for a place they may never have known, and warm hearts with his small town charm. In 2016 Robert recorded his debut EP "Prairie Gold" in Toronto Ontario, which beckoned of his small town sentimentalism and longing to return to his roots. "Rocky Mountain Lot" featured on his EP, made it to the top 10 in the country category in the Canadian Songwriting Competition in 2017. In the same year Robert moved back into the west and settled in Calgary, Alberta where he has quickly earned a reputation as a electric entertainer and carefully crafted artist alike. You can expect sweet and salty vocals, curated lyrics, dreamy musical textures and of course a sprinkle of rhinestones. With a clear respect for the older tradition of country music, seamlessly integrated with modern and progressive themes Rob is sure to attract attention from seasoned country music listeners and those not normally well acquainted with the genre alike."
