ROBYN OTTOLINI is a seventeen year old singer-songwriter who has been immersed in the magic of music since the age of 3. In Uxbridge, Ontario - her home town - she is known for singing throughout the halls of her high school. ‘Without looking, teachers know it’s me when I get into class,’ Robyn says with a smile. She remembers coming up with melodic ideas as early as ten years old and wanting to write songs. Piano lessons weren’t enough to satisfy Robyn’s musical interests, playing flute in the school band helped but, it was the introduction of the guitar where Robyn found her writing partner. Her earliest songs were written with her grandfather’s Harmony guitar from the 1950s. ‘I write songs about what I’m feeling and what’s happening in my life.’ When the opportunity to sing on demos for a local recording studio presented itself, Robyn jumped right in. Her original songs caught the producer’s attention. Her debut album is called Fairytales and Open Doors featuring the first two singles Ring Around The Roses & Little Back Road..

GARRETT WALKER'S mom and dad were both singers and musicians. When he was a very young child they would often take him to gigs with them. He'd hang out in the back room and listen to the show - breathing in the music like air. After the break up of his parents at age 8, his life changed forever, and he uses his songs to paint the pictures of his journey since - songs about love and pain, hope and faith, and always about reality. Garrett's goal is to use his talent for all the right reasons. And talent he has - you'll hear it in the songs he writes and sings. From the heartfelt Wasn't Done Loving You and All The Above to the fun and cool vibe of Leave My Guitar Alone, you will be moved and entertained. This talented singer/songwriter is making his dreams happen in Nashville and will chat with me about his music career, his songwriting, performing - and much more. Tune in and get up close & personal with Garrett and hear three of his songs signed with Crowe Entertainment.
