Robert Farrell

Home: Ottawa, Canada

Ottowa composer and guitarist Robert Farrell has now produced six albums, and has been described by Billboard Magazine as “arguably the greatest undiscovered guitarist in Canada”. While no longer 'undiscovered', the “greatest guitarist” label still sticks. Robert brings us rock blues in the vein of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Clapton and ZZ Top, cushioned by smooth vocals reminiscent of Sting. His story-telling guitar and power-trio sounds have garnered extensive radio play on Canada AM, CBC LIVE, plus Nashville and Memphis, Tennessee.

With the 2004 release of the all-instrumental Elegant Chaos, Robert Farrell has now produced six albums, including Freedom For My Soul (1996), When the Banks of the Mississippi Run Dry (1997), Robert Farrell Express (2000), “Best of” AutoLoader (2002), Sun House Fury Part I (SHF) (2003) and the all-instrumental Elegant Chaos (2004).

This past February, Robert represented southeastern Ontario at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Tennessee, where the band showcased its blues-rock driven sound. It’s no wonder Robert’s been called “Canada’s answer to Johnny Winter, Robert Cray and Sonny Landreth.” And Robert and his musicians create a heady mix of rock n’ blues that can jack up almost any media project, including TV, Film, Documentary, Indie and smokin' hot commercials.
