Get to know Robbie Walden, read my indepth personal bio below. It's more then just music, It's life!!
Robbie was born in Anchorage, Alaska but grew up in Sequim, Washington. Where he was a standout athlete in Wrestling, Track and Weight Lifting. He was a multiple State placer also setting State, National and World Records in Olympic Weighlifintg and Power Lifting as well as winning the World Championships in Power Lifting. Robbie went on to join the U.S. Army where he was injured in Iraq being medical discharged shortly there after. Robbie now resides in Tacoma/Puyallup, WA where he was training for MMA and Strongman competitions as well as working on his music. But after the tragic loss last summer of his older brother and best friend Jesse Marunde, Robbie switched gears and had some soul searching to do. He decided to drop everything and focus only on music. Music became his escape from reality. Although his songs are written out of experience he likes to write songs with messages and things you can relate too. He also likes story telling songs that are funny and can bring a smile to you.
In 2004, Robbie released his first album, "Head Over Heals" Which has been a big hit with the local scenes. He has been playing all over the northwest and gaining new fans and supporters where ever he goes.
His plans for music are huge and he believes his competitive attitude and original sound are going to take the music industry by storm. Robbie loves to play music and plans to give it more attention then he has ever before. His style, he considers to be in its own class of music. He just plays from the heart. He likes to play meaningful songs that everyone can relate to that has positive messages and a great sound. His voice is very compelling sometimes reminding you of a cross from the singer of Racal Flatts and Tracy Chapman. Even when you can't see him sing, his voice just draws you in sounding very emotional as he captivates your attention singing his poetic words being influenced by the storys of country music legends and Edwin McCain. Robbie plans on taking the music scene by storm so stay tuned and keep listening. There is more Robbie Walden to come.
