Robert Hunter – Gone For Good

Robert Hunter is an American singer/songwriter and poet, who first gained critical acclaim following the release of his debut EP ‘Outta My Mind’, which was produced and recorded in Nashville TN. Two songs from that album (365 and Outta My Mind) achieved significant terrestrial radio airplay, which paved the way for ‘Afterglow,’ Roberts second studio album working with Nashville producer Dave Bechtel in the span of less than a year. Roberts writing writing has been described as “intelligent” and “hard wiring after a single listen.”

“Robert Hunter has a gift for combining smart lyrics with smart hooks, delivering earnest and reliably well-crafted tunes that hark back to the golden age of radio-friendly alt-rock.” – The Daily Vault

For those who haven’t heard of Robert, or are perhaps more familiar with “the other Robert Hunter” – that’s because, like the beloved Grateful Dead lyricist, Robert is a self-described recluse, having written more than a hundred radio friendly gems over the past two decades, without seeking any recognition for his talents.

That all changed when Robert was approached by Zing Productions, and asked to perform an all original acoustic set, supporting their non-profit music education programs benefitting underprivileged children. That ‘one time’ show led to many more, including stages from Las Vegas to Unity College in Maine – all of which benefitted charities and non-profit organizations, including Zing.

Currently Robert is busy supporting Afterglow, and the single Gone for Good, and doing radio interviews to rally support for his wife who was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer.
