Thanks for stopping by! Always feel free to leave Bruce a comment. He loves hearing from friends and fans. However, please note that comments containing attachments will most likely be deleted. They just take up too much room! Thanks guys…Friends of B.R.
"Texas songwriter" is one of those job descriptions - like "French chef" or "Kenyan runner" - that packs a lot of implied historical weight. Any occupational title that invites immediate comparison to Guy Clark, Kris Kristofferson, Lyle Lovett, and Willie Nelson is not for the faint of heart. Real songwriters know that it’s not about how many units you move so much as whether people sing your songs to themselves when they’re alone. By either standard, Bruce Robison is among the first rank of Texas songwriters.
Bruce is also a prolific recording artist. For his eighth studio release, Bruce joins forces with Rodney Crowell to co-produce a collection of new classics reflecting the love and respect he has for the traditions of country music. In his clear-eyed, deeply felt songs, Bruce does what great songwriters have always done: he takes the reality that surrounds us every day and makes it new again. Faded, careworn lives turn out to be rich with meaning when looked at from a slightly different angle, if you’ll just take the time... and Robison takes the time. The results are heartbreaking, hilarious, sweet, and stirring, as his songs confirm after a single listen.
As a songwriter, Bruce's craft is admired by his peers and his creations have been covered by a variety of artists including Garth Brooks, Lee Ann Womack, Gary Allan, wife Kelly Willis, and brother Charlie Robison. Additionally Tim McGraw ("Angry All The Time"), The Dixie Chicks ("Travelin' Soldier"), and George Strait ("Wrapped") each achieved 1 status for their versions of his songs. Bruce Robison doesn’t require introductions anymore. He’s made himself heard in the hearts of people across the country.
Additionally, Bruce continues to churn out over 100 live shows each year. Whether performing in an auditorium or bar, Robison's captivating gigs have earned him a wide range of fans who appreciate his brand of honest-to-god Texas Country music.
But Robison's journey doesn't end with the relentless touring and songwriting - there's more. This year, Bruce takes on the independent world by self-releasing his latest single, "Born to Roll" to the Texas Country radio market. Fans and admirers can anticipate the full-length album, From The Top, in 2010.
After hearing the single “Burn Down With Willie” off my upcoming debut EP “Don’t Be Mad Cuz I’m Late”, Daniel Barrett, Austin producer and guitarist/vocalist of the award-winning roots-rock band Porterdavis commented, “Monty and the band barrel through their AmericanaTexadeliccountrybakedroots blend with abandon and charm. This music is bound to please from El Paso to Tyler, in between and beyond. Pour yourself a Shiner, roll yer own, and be prepared to grin!” Would love for you to come on over and check out a few tracks for yourself. Thanks for your support and thanks for being friends.

Hey Bruce - You were great at McDavid Studio a couple of days ago. I'm a songwriter and was blown away by your songs. My favorites were "Travelin soldier", "The New Me", "Angry all The time" "Wrapped" and the one about your brother. But every song left us wanting more. You are so talented and real and what every songwriter strives for.
Thanks for the show and for reminding me why I write!
