Event information

Birmingham based singer songwriter Robert Lane will release his third album and tour the UK in spring 2018.

In June 2017 Robert went on a joint headline tour with Nashville based singer songwriter Kyshona Armstrong. Robert met Kyshona in September 2016 when touring as the opening act for a Night in Nashville featuring Kyshona, Sarah Darling and Jenn Bostic.

Robert was chosen by the LG Arena to perform in the Forum Live area of the arena before concerts by Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Ellie Goulding and John Mayer. In July 2015 he once again performed at the newly re-branded Genting Arena before a concert by Fleetwood Mac.

In August 2013 he was selected to attend a song writing retreat/course with Kinks front man Ray Davies.

“Robert Lane attended my songwriting course at Dartington in 2013. Robert responded well to composition and exercises given. As the course became more intensive his progress was excellent throughout. I am pleased to recommend Robert to continue his music and develop his writing so that he can reach his full potential.” Ray Davies songwriter and frontman of The Kinks
