ROBB

"Vaduz"

BY Sarah MurphyPublished Jan 19, 2015

Hailing from Münster, Germany, ROBB (real name Rob Summerfield) is ready to take a leap across the Atlantic with a North American release of his recent EP Clay. To mark the occasion, he's streaming album cut "Vaduz" right now on Exclaim.ca.
 
Bringing together "alternative soul" and "handcrafted, earthy songwriting," "Vaduz" is a sparkling example of Summerfield's ability to translate raw emotion into music.
 
The track moves fluidly from a sombre piano ballad into an electro-tinged number with jazzy guitar undertones — highlighting the range of influences and ideas that Summerfield draws from without ever sounding cluttered or overly ambitious.
 
ROBB is planning for a vinyl release of Clay that will include a handful of bonus remixed tracks, though no official release date has been set. In the meantime, listen to "Vaduz" in the player below.
