ARTIST HISTORY
It all started in New London, CT at age 7 with the school talent show. By the time I was 16 I had formed East Hampton, CTs proverbial high school band. As "The Specials" we played school dances and at the movie theater between matinees. Then came the stint in the Navy and I formed "The Signalmen". The ship’s captain arranged for us to perform for dignitaries in Italy, Subic Bay, Hong Kong, China, Spain, Africa and Hawaii. After the Navy I spent several years on Staten Island with "The Country Echoes". Nashville came next where I formed and fronted "Red Hot Ricochet Band" and "Connection”. Between the two bands, I spent about three years fronting for Grand Ole Opry artist Stonewall Jackson. Then it was on to Atlanta where I formed "Robert Allen & Co." and began playing locally. Next was an extended USO tour entertaining in Turkey, Italy, Greece and Spain. Now I’m back in the Nashville area making more music and loving it!
