In the few years we've been here, we've occasionally been contacted by booking agents and festival promoters. As much as we would love to oblige and perform live, please note that the two of us live in two separate countries, and create our music by exchanging files over the web...so live performances are not possible. One of us is bummed out about that; the other less so. However, those in the Cleveland area can contact us about the Ohio half (Jo) performing solo locally. NOTE: This offer does not extend to pay-to-play venues or promoters. We think you suck rocks. If you want to know what we really think, use your imagination, because we will not respond to you.
Richard Hollis and Jo Robinson are multi-instrumentalists, and enjoy and write a fairly wide variety of stuff. Not much more to say, really.

The Hollis-Robinson Project's Friend Space (Top 37)
Dear The Hollis-Robinson Project, It's after Halloween and the busy holidays are approaching. Take a break and drop by to listen to my featured songs. You may find my music to be just the calm you need during this hectic time of the year. I appreciate your friendship and I hope you enjoy the music. I wish you much joy and peace.
Hi, just found your comment in the basement of my Myspace. Yes it is a Friesian, a very special horse belonging to my friend Jonny Westberg who uses him for medieval jousting. Ray
Hey there, Here's one from left field... Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat? A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video: Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4 Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice. Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today. I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible. Help to raise awareness. Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently? Take care and keep in touch. Best, Faber. "Just a guy trying to make the world a better place."

Hi Guys, Hey Jo thanks for listening to OUR "Box of Dreams". Steve (Cormier & Long) needs to take credit for the music, words are mine (with a little long distance harmony thrown in). Grateful Deadish???? well I know my influences would be from that direction... hahaha. Always glad to hear from you, hope all is well, spring is coming, YEAH!!!!!
Great version of 'Greensleeves' and i love 'Pockets', but 'Bride's favourite' is mine too. A lovely jig and put me in a bouncy mood. Thanks ever so. Ian
