“Robb & Crockett is the most fun I’ve ever had playing live.” – Jimmy Robb
“We feed off of our connection to the listeners and the fun we have playing
together. We don’t know where a song might go when we start it, but
we’ve come to trust each other. We’re like brothers.” – Lincoln Crockett
Like a couple of lions working in tandem, Jimmy Robb & Lincoln Crockett sing and play together with dynamic
intensity and supernatural solidarity. Robb & Crockett’s raw power, soulful voices and charismatic stage presence
are trumped only by their natural camaraderie and ease inside originals and covers styled from almost every genre
of American Music. Their simple instrumentation – Jimmy on guitar, Lincoln on mandolin – belies an enormous
pallet of sounds and worldly grooves as solid as their brother-tight harmonies.
In their separate careers as successful solo artists and members of Cross-eyed Rosie, The Jimmy Robb Band, Rhythm
Jones and others, Jimmy & Lincoln have sung with their hearts on their sleeves in every sizeable city in the Pacific
Northwest. They’ve had standing engagements at numerous Portland, Oregon music venues, played major halls like
Portland’s Roseland & Aladdin Theaters, Performed in National Music Festivals and shared the stage and billing
with acts as diverse as Quiet Riot, Public Enemy, Edie Brickell, Maceo Parker, The Wallflowers, Cherry Poppin’
Daddies, Tony Furtado & Scott Law, and Page McConnell (of Phish).
Born on opposite coasts, Robb & Crockett the duo emerged spontaneously from enormous campfire jams. Each
found a voracious musician and songwriter mirrored in the other. Like Mick & Keith or Lennon/Macca updated for
the acoustic music era, these singer/songrockers render one another’s rich catalogues with a confident and original
blues-meets-bluegrass sound.
Robb & Crockett have been honing material for their upcoming debut live recording at Mississippi Stuidos, with a
busy gig schedule in Oregon and Washington. With over thirty years collective performing experience and seven
recorded albums between them, these two troubadours know how to engage an audience.

Hey Guys, just wanted to say thanks for comin to the restaurant last night, I'm glad you like it there cause it's always a highlight for me. I feel like it's been one of my best contributions to the place to hook you up with another spot to play. The songs are still stuck in my head; can't wait to see ya again!

I love the sound guys. Just an observation here but Jimmys Voice in Secrecy really sounds like early Cat Stevens, not the music, just the voice, just that song. Maybe its just me. Diggin the tunes.
Hey I was sorry to miss you all last weekend. You should consider playing up in Oly. I have a friend who books shows at the 4th Ave. Tavern. A pretty cool joint with a nice big stage. Let me know if you want to plan a show.
