He is boldly raw and authentic with a magical way of manipulating space and time to create special moments that change our perspective, allowing us to see more of the everyday beauty that surrounds us.It is difficult to directly compare Rob Fillo’s music to other artists as it seems to contain aspects of many, but imitations of none: Jeff Buckley’s passion for subtle innovation and dynamic vocals, Townes Van Zandt’s blend of cerebral yet straightforward lyrics and intricate finger-picking, and Tom Wait’s courage to write and produce a song in his own unique way. Rob has also taken cues from his favourites including Nat King Cole, Chet Baker, Scott Walker, Daft Punk, Vera Lynn, Ella & Louis, Willie Nelson, Tom Yorke, Johnny Cash and so many more.
