Catch Of The Week: Steve Robinson
Meet Steve Robinson From Charlton, MA
Steve Robinson is a “Carolina country rocker” who has found himself in the middle of Massachusetts, literally. But you can’t take the Carolina our of this country boy. His heroes are fellow North Carolinians, Luke Combs and Eric Church. Like those artists, there’s a edge to Steve’s sound. But there is also an aching in his voice that softens his approach to his songs.
Robinson has been at the music game since his grandfather gave him a guitar when he was a young boy. Times were tight for Steve early on, but the struggle made him a better artist. The skilled singer/songwriter has been able to use his fight as fuel, and says “the ride has never been easy but it’s always been worth it.”
