Robin escaped the holocost by dissapearing under the cabaret whores hoop skirts and out the secret trap door with a magnum of absynthe which he took to his tree root hovel in the forest and drank with some smelly mushrooms while playing twin sexophones which made him the nazi-sprite-nymph he is today.

"RJ" as I've recently dubbed him, is the opposite of the backwoods implication. An enlightened spirit, he skips happily through life, leaving music and laughter in his wake. Spontaneous as they come, he still might make a million dollars someday. He's a sweet and sensitive man with whom I have had many a beautiful conversation as we drink up the moonlight. Our shared love of the Shona Mbira gives us a special bond that produces endless joy often teetering between the spiritual and the absurd. A clown dressed like a prince, that's my RowBean, and a good friend to boot. Love you man.

Robin is the perfect mix of sweet, saucy, spicy, serious, silly, sexy, and sassy. he is a shapeshifter, able to transform from crazy marching band hero with supastar style, to no-nonsense ultra motivated business minded networking professional, to smooth talkin super scintillating vagabond with a twist of lime and an extra olive. he goes down like a cool drink of water, or a hot chocolate with a little spice of something you can't quite put your finger on..get him on the dance floor and you might just end up making cookies out there, or perhaps doing a little grocery shopping. Hand him any musical instrument and he'll play it! his charismatic effervescent charm will attract you, his wacky silly sense of humor will make you laugh uncontrollably and his loving intentions and deep truthfulness to self, other humans, and the planet will make you a friend for life. Thank you Robin for helping me to find my magic glasses. You have challenged me and guided me in more ways that you can even know.
in one lick of the saxophone i was smitten and the rest is history....

Your open heart is the finest
Your strength is your kindness
we love to see you shine
And your laughter is divine
We are definitely related.

about me
....and my ego identifications...
I was born into this world with a song in my head that has never stopped. It is music, and the power it has to transform and heal that I love. I also love people, animals and simply being.
A strong ego-identity I am playing right now is that of the performer.
I began my journey as a musician and performer when I was young, and soon discovered the stage as a home and a powerful forum that delivers amazing fun and growth-full challenge.
In everything I do, I work to stay light, and remember the big cosmic joke hee hee. Humor is my most loyal compadre. If we can not laugh easily, and at ourselves, then we are missing something. That said, I find it important to balance the duality of the sacred and profane, and use music often as a tool of ritual, meditation and release.
In my journey to combine music, theater, sacredness and humor, I have dance around in the eco-spiritual circus/cabaret world of Neo-Bohemia. I play in two groups, the March Fourth Marching Band, and Vagabond Opera, both part of a larger, wonderful community of creative people living in Portland Or and beyond.
I value my relationships and I have strong dedication to living full creative, spiritual and physical potential on this plane.
I enjoy business and self-motivated entrepreneurship, especially when it has to do with positive dreams and service.
My other home is in New Zealand, where I am connected to an amazing, functional intentional Community called TUI at the top of the south island.
I love people, and look forward to the chemistry and adventures I have not yet encountered...Namaste
