About Me
Hi Everyone !
My birth name is Robert Raymond Barrett
😎ROBBIE RAY😎
Is my Brand/Recording Artist/Stage Name.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am, a "Raw Acoustic" Storyteller - Based in Sudbury🍁Ontario🍁Canada.
A survivor since birth and Retired Cook of 34 years, plus numerous self employment ventures.
I've built my own doors over the years....I Walk My Own Path, and keep very busy in life.
I have little, or no patience, for B.S. around us in our lives 😲
I Love All Kind, Friendly & Respectful People !
For The Others...Well, 🤣
Listen to my Song ~ Social Suicide
😎Your answer is in there😎
My Philosophy: Always Rooted in the Truth
"The Baby of Eight , Just An Orphan in the End" - Is a quote from the 1st track
on my debut album "Life So Far" called The Early Years.
Having Survived - a Violent Upbringing
and forced away/disowned from Toxic / Agressive Siblingsover 20 years ago,
I found my true home in 2009, with my beautiful Wife
Deborah Jean Barrett (Debbie), from St. John's Newfoundland/Labrador.
We have been married for 12, and together for 17 awesome years.
We are both animal lover's, so our children have 4 legs. 😁
We have our cat - Jumpin' Jack at 13.5 years &
ARIEL ~ Our Retired Therapy Dog, now at 14.5 years old.
We've lost a few over the years,
( Pumpkin, Miss Mooch - both cats) & Princess (ARIEL's Mama) all Dearly Missed in our lives
My Music ~ is My Legacy, for Debbie, & my Estranged Son - Jake, AKA - ( Jacob Teegan Mathew)
along with any of his children / grand children, that may want to find out about me, long after I'm gone.
But Of Course, I'd Rather Meet Them Now, While I'm Breathing 🤣 lmfao
My Sound.... Is Old School Classic Folk/Rock
I like call It "Raw Acoustic", It's very casual & laid back
My Debut Album, LIFE SO FAR
is a Raw Autobiography In Song
Just a man and his guitar
With some serious and also silly content.
I hope to pass on my knowledge, life's lessons & maybe help those out there, who need to
" Learn To Find Strength, To WALK AWAY...from the tacky reality show, this world has become
with all the Bullies, Narcicists & Toxic People in it. So Very Sad "
LIVE HAPPY FOLKS !
"You are human beings, we all are, and We Deserve Serenity & Peace, in our short lives"
" I Think The World ~ Really Needs To Laugh More, Lighten Up and Loose The Hate !
Just My Opinion Of Course. " 😊
As my Journey Continues
I am expanding my "Instrument Arsenal" for future albums
with Mandolin, Violin, Harmonica, D’Jembe & Electric Drum Kit,
Alto Sax, Electric & Bass Guitars, to find that
Next Great Hook
Yes..lots to learn, as I Wear All The Hats
I record everything myself ~ in my Own Studio
The Mission: A Survivor's Perspective
& the unvarnished truth, sometimes with a little cursing, but never too foul.
😲 Mama Raised A Gentleman 😇
I'm launching - ROBBIE RAY RADIO Soon
a 24/7 Station ~ with hits from the 50's-80's, & limited 90's
To keep classic rock, rock & roll, folk, blues, & some old R&B alive
These are our roots folks, relevant for all generations.
"We Shouldn't Toss Away The Genres That Started It All, For Current Artist's
