Details:
Born in Oklahoma and raised in the heartland, Robert German was
classically trained in voice from the age of twelve, singing in
chamber choirs and opera productions while studying music. Robert
began to teach himself guitar and songwriting at the age of nineteen.
He moved to New York in 1999 and became involved in a turbulent
relationship. Its chaotic end inspired Robert to write a song
entitled Marlboro Man.

A special limited edition promotional single of Marlboro Man was
recently released nationally with the DVD for the Academy-Award
winning movie Brokeback Mountain through one of its distributors. In
June 2006, DJ Jeremy Hovies of Sirius Satellite Radio began playing
the song on his show Last Call. The song instantly made its debut on
Sirius Out Qâs Hot 20 countdown where it remained for the fourneen weeks, soaring to the number one position.

A new version of Marlboro Man is featured on Sirens of Brooklyn.
With his extraordinary voice Robert creates horns, stringed
instruments, drums and other various sounds. There are sirens who
call in the sailors and ones that race towards the burning buildings.
The album is comprised of 12 songs, all of them written, produced and
performed by Robert.

His music encompasses folk, jazz, and blues with a bit of country
flavor.
Robert's song Well Formed Man, the fourth track on the album was
recently featured on High Bias with Uncle LD on the Village Voiceâs
website and on National Public Radio's Open Mic.
