The Hollis-Robinson Project is a duo of music hobbyists (although both of us have worked as professional musicians all those years ago....). We enjoy all sorts of music, from classical and jazz to rock to traditional acoustic folk to all kinds of strange stuff. We never know what we'll end up writing -- our songs have ranged from rocked-out Child ballads to soft acoustic numbers to Americana to novelty tunes to....whatever we feel like doing, basically! We work together by exchanging wav files over the internet since we live in two countries separated by the Atlantic Ocean. We hope to be able to record again in the same room one of these days; it'd be much easier!

As you know how I am a meek type of person.Quiet, going with the flow,never upsetting the status quo.Just keeping a low profile. (evil grin)
Besides I had to make another one.Those meanies in the AF had my other 2 profiles silenced. I can't be having that.Thanks for remaining my steadfast friends. JimmyG
Hi Guys, Hadn't been by for a visit lately (sorry, the world has been nuts for me). I'm still in awe at the great music you guys put out with the file sharing. Don't know how, where, or when you find the time. Thanks for listening to Fat Cat Blues too, I haven't had any time for reviewing this month, but the last week of August I'm bacheloring it with my wife and daughter on vacation without me (boo-hoo). I'll have to play catch up then (Didn't see anything posted by you yet....???) Thanks again for the friendship and keep those tunes coming, I'm out hear waiting and listening I promise. Love and peace my friends, Wayne
thanks so kindly for the request and friendship. ah how great, i have met many people recently who are picking up the violin for the first time. how is it coming along? i love your music and hope you continue to share your talent with us all. positive energy and love your way.
spread love and heal through music. - be silent galileah
Thanks Jo glad you enjoyed me Spratton offering. I was actually very nervous playing in front of my fellow muso peeps. Will look forward to meeting you one day though, it'll be a blast!
