BAYFEST PROFILE
Nashville, Tenn.-International Recording Artist K-Rob will be
one of several artists opening for his uncles the Isley Brothers at BayFest
2013, the largest Music Festival in Alabama.
As the nephew of Rudolph Isley of the legendary Isley
Brothers, Urban/R&B Artist K-Rob continues to garner new fans and support
for his energetic, edgy and soulful sound. This will be K-Rob’s third year
performing at BayFest in Mobile. The singer/songwriter will perform many
familiar hits, in addition to his music from his freshman CD and his most
recent EP featuring, “So Addictive.”
“My ambition has always been to ultimately create a new joint
that would connect with music lovers around the world,” K-Rob said. “I
especially look forward to being one of the opening acts for my uncles, the Isley
Brothers, and I can’t wait to share my music with the wonderful and supportive
audience in Mobile.”
K-Rob is also pleased to announce the video debut of his
single,” So Addictive,” which was directed and produced by Ron White of
Atlanta, Ga. White is also a native of Mobile.
K-Rob emerged on the music scene in 2004 and introduced his first,
self-entitled CD, “K-Rob,” which
garnered placement on Pandora, Jango.com, INDIE 104 and IRADIOLA. The “raves”
continued with airplay on major FM radio stations such as 92.1, WQQK,
Nashville, Tenn., Power 94.3, WJTT, Chattanooga, Tenn.; and the nationally
syndicated, The Michael Baisden Show, and various radio stations throughout the
U.K., France and Japan.
K-Rob’s
first CD features songs such as “2Nite,” “Again (Like the First Time),” a
Stevie Wonder rendition, “Golden Lady” and the sensual club-banger, “The Velvet
Room.” He remains passionate about his work that’s inspired by the Isley
Brothers, Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway, Earth, Wind and Fire, and Marvin Gaye.
His vocal style has been compared to Howard Hewitt, Joe and Maxwell. Vocally,
K-Rob’s falsetto notes remind you of a soft and sexy romance.
"So Addictive" was penned by a talented, up and coming
singer/songwriter based out of Atlanta, LOK3Y, whose forte' is writing deeply
soulful records with "tinges" of gospel, R&B and international
"feels." “The entire making of “So Addictive” was a family affair,”
K-Rob said. Like his first project, K-Rob continued the prolific partnership
with long time friend and super producer, Angelo “Lo” Ray, Father of Angelo
Ray, Jr. aka LOK3Y. “Angelo and I wanted to continue “moving the needle” with
hot records that would also resonate internationally.
