With a bright voice and sharp music sensibility, singer-songwriter Robbie Hazen knows it takes just three to start a riot. Hazen’s trio records and performs compositions that blend acoustic college rock, alt pop, and indie folk with an invigorating sense of fun, cleverness, and confidence. A recent Notre Dame graduate, the 23-year-old Floridian is a veteran songwriter and performer who got his start as a young teenager, playing carnivals, festivals, and church events and building on those experiences, recording, putting out demos, learning the business side of music-making and production and attracting the attention of recording-industry movers and shakers.
Primed to be an indie/college radio darling, Hazen appeals to mainstream tastes as well as to hipster music hounds, thanks to his lyrical sincerity, catchy melodies, and solid tune-making. This talented vocalist is also an accomplished guitarist, and he is backed and grounded by the Riot, consisting of gritty Renaissance man G.I. Jo on bass and passionate percussion from classically trained Brandon McClaskey.
“I want not only the music and melody to move people, but the lyrics and story as well,” says Hazen. His buoyant songs deal with the connections between people, our relationships, the ties that survive and the ones that don’t. More recently he’s exploring the themes of politics, social issues, and what unites us in the wider world.
Hazen’s well-received demo is out of print, but two CDs are available for order here on MySpace as well as in downloadable format online via iTunes, Napster, and similar venues: Remedy and Come to Life.
