JANET ROBBINS
Janet Robbins was born in Nashville, Tennessee into
a musical family. At five she began playing piano, rocking her Dr.
Seuss songbook, and soon began to tour the neighborhood with a friend
performing their own songs and commercials. She gained critical acclaim for her
role as a piece of Oscar Mayer bacon in a frying pan, which may have led to her
becoming a vegetarian. Janet's childhood love of bugs (and consequent building
of much needed bug hospitals) was a foreshadowing of her later love and nurturing
of animals, particularly the multitude of rescued Siberian Huskies she lives
with.
Janet eventually made her way to Los Angeles, playing and composing in bands.
She then discovered a different compositional voice in the creation of
atmospheric soundscapes that incorporate her vocal and instrumental talents as
well as diverse cultural influences absorbed from her travels. This new musical
direction led to her three CD series, Carrying
the Bag of Hearts Interpreting the Birth of Stars, and was followed by the
critically-acclaimed Song of the Gypsy
Tree. She is also the featured vocalist on Chris Armstrong's second CD in
the Spaceage Furniture Music series.
Her compositions "intoxicate and enliven En Live In the heart and mind." Janet Robbins draws on her rich heritage to weave sonic and visual tales of "magic and mysticism." She is like a musical spirit guide. Follow her and she will lead you on an enriching and captivating journey: "excellent and fair."

Janet Robbins grew up in a Nashville household
that included legendary dad, Marty Robbins Robbins was an illustrious country &
western music entertainer with numerous hits including several that reached the
pop charts. One of Robbins most memorable tunes was “El Paso,” a #1 chart
topper on both the country and pop charts. Marty Robbins was respected and
emulated by legendary artists such as Elvis Presley, Frankie Laine, Johnny
Cash, The Grateful Dead and The Who. Marty Robbins was also a multi-instrumentalist
performer.
She was told not to follow in her famous
father’s footsteps by her dad. According to Janet, Marty Robbins kept his
personal life private, not wanting to expose his family to all the glitz of
show business. And she admits that she rarely got to see him perform. Janet
stayed away from music for the first half of her life and was not a fan of
country music. Instead at an early age embraced, The Doors hypnotic single,
“Riders on the Storm.”
Janet would soon be captivated by artists such
as Yes, Pink Floyd, Jeff Beck, Led Zeppelin and ambient music pioneer Brian
Eno. Janet was also influenced by classical greats Chopin, Beethoven, Mozart
and Dmitry Kabalevsky. Kabaleski Robbins music is categorized somewhere between
progressive/ambient/ and experimental. But she has an indefinite talent that
could easily embellish any existing genre.
