Congrats To Robin Rogers – 2009 Blues Blast Award Winner

I just wanted to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Robin Rogers on her recent win as best female artist in the 2009 Blues Blast Music Awards. And congrats, as well, to her husband, Tony Rogers, who’s an old friend of mine, and who also contributed a lot to what makes Robin’s music so note-worthy.
It’s a thrill to see folks I know doing so well in the music industry. Robin and Tony are just bringing it. That’s inspirational to an old buzzard like me. I might very well have given up music a long time ago if not for the shining examples set by people like Robin and Tony Rogers; people who refuse to give in to the norms of mainstream expectations. If you’re living your dream and doing what God put you on Earth to do, your reason for being here will never be in question.
If you haven’t heard Robin’s music before now, you should get off your butt and go pick up one of her CDs. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed. Her music leans toward the traditional Blues, and it’s delivered with the vehicle of Robin’s powerful, soulful voice. If you’ve never liked the Blues, you very well might once you’ve heard Robin and Tony Rogers. If you don’t, there’s something wrong with you. ‘Nuff said.
