Details:
Growing up, Robert was always surrounded by music of different sorts. Before Robert's birth in October, 1981, his grandfather was a well known pianist/organist in the Logan, Utah music scene. Robert's father grew up playing the saxophone in front of large crowds with his band mates. Robert would always pound the keys on the piano while his older sister would play complicated piano pieces, in which soon after it would be his turn to practice. Robert liked to listen while his father would play a mean slide guitar. Music from the guitar would include impromptu pieces and famous songs from classic rock artists such as Led Zeppelin, Cat Stevens, and Simon and Garfunkel. Robert grew up listening to these bands and learning any song he could by ear. The list of songs could play grew as he took his first guitar lessons in 1993. Starting with more simple pieces, Robert studied the licks of incredible guitarists such as Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix. Trying to match their style, he would plug away on his first electric guitar.

Through his teenage years, Robert's music collect grew as he discovered new music from artists of the past and present. It was during his high school years that he took the knowledge he had gained from his teachers that he begun composing his first songs. One song in particular that can be heard on his new CD release "Whisperings at Nightfall" "Autumn Moon", was written during this time. At the end of his days in high school, Robert revealed his guitar skills to his class mates playing a medley of Metallica songs with a friend playing along on cello. From this point, everyone besides his close friends would bring up the word guitar during conversations. After high school, Robert attended college at Utah State University, graduating with a bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts and Sciences. During this time, a majority of his guitar pieces were composed.

2001 revealed Robert's early demo with songs such as Scent of Rain, Mountain Mist, and Autumn Moon. After his college graduation in 2004, his first CD Pale Shades was completed, which was soon followed by his second release in 2005 Within the Outline. During his promotion for Within the Outline, Robert connected with Will Ackerman, founder of the famous Windham Hill record Label, to record his newest CD release "Whisperings at Nightfall". With Will coaching him on performing styles, particular songs were taken and transformed from Robert's earlier CD recordings. For the first time, other instruments were added into the mix creating a beautiful arrangement of guitar, cello, violin, english horn, bass, vocals, and percussion. At the present time, Robert will be setting out to introduce his new CD "Whisperings at Nightfall".

"Here is yet another fine release produced by Will Ackerman. Even with some of the same outstanding guests, Robert Linton carves out a distinctive sound and his guitar playing fits well practically anywhere. The beginning, middle and ending tracks are each solo pieces, each with its own pensive, fluttering style, but for me it´s the tracks that are embellished by some of the best artists in contemporary music that carry the album to stand on its own. For example, Eugene Friesen plays cello on two tracks, and they benefit greatly from his sensitive touch. Tracy Silverman is also heard twice, with stunning violin work, and Noah Wilding, who is also heard on Ackerman´s “Hearing Voices,” adds his voice to two tracks as well. Keeping the Noah´s ark theme alive, bassist Michael Manring is also hear on two selections. Fortunately, Will, who serves as co-producer with Corin Nelsen, appears only on one track; otherwise we would predict 40 days of you know what along with the pure joy of fine guitar playing in the company of others. We will definitely be hearing more from Robert Linton, and those who acquire this CD will be hearing plenty of “Whisperings at Nightfall” through repeated listenings."
