BIOGRAPHY
Robert
Deeble is an American singer-songwriter based in Seattle. His recordings have
been noted for their orchestrated arrangements, a subtle, minimalist style of
production, and lyrical content. Robert's first album released in 1994 with
folk heroine Victoria Williams. Subsequent recordings included music industry
veterans such as Rachel Blumberg (The Decemberists), Anna-Lynn
Williams (Lotte Kestner) and Stephen Hodges
(Tom Waits/Mavis Staples).
Robert first received
critical acclaim for his 1998 release Earthside Down and again with Heart
Like Feathers (2012) which additionally received regular
rotation on XM Satellite’s The Loft. His last full-length BELOVED released in
2018 and was a very personal account of the adoption of his daughter. Robert
has since been working with producer Ric Hordinski
for another full length album due in 2024.
As a touring artist Robert has had the honor to share the stage with Low,
Ida, M Ward, Sam Phillips, Over The Rhine, Dave Bazan, Damien Jurado,The Kingsbury Manx, M Ward and Victoria Williams.
REVIEWS:
"Music
that unfolds in its own time, utterly comfortable and at ease." BIG
TAKE OVER
"I'm
not sure I'd want to start rowing toward a deserted island without it." BLURT (9
out of 10 Stars)
“Truly an arresting talent,
able to gain entry to places rarely imagined by most songwriters” Paste Music
"It's
beautiful music for the sake of beautiful music, and what's better is that
it's believable." SEATTLE WEEKLY
"An album's worth of
finely wrought songs, tinged with sadness and redeemed by compassion."
iTUNES (editorial)
"Disturbingly honest
songs. Few of his albums are more intimately honest than Heart like
Feathers." STEREO SUBVERSION
"Deeble's
authentic lyrics, along with stunning instrumental arrangements, make this
album one of his strongest." PERFORMER
"The pained and
yearning Deeble comes off like a worthy descendent and disciple of Leonard
Cohen." EMUSIC (4 out of 5 Stars)
"The songs are dark and
tight, instruments don't play with individual personality, they are bent to
the will of the song." AMERICANA UK
