Robbie's Bio

Robbie Bartlett has been performing in Louisville area nightclubs since 1982.  Her talent and strong sense of musical direction is electric and engaging. Robbie and her warm, smokey alto voice are heard regularly at popular clubs.

She started singing at the age of four and has a strong foundation in blues and jazz.  Her styles include music that complements the blues and includes such tunes and artists as "Respect" by Aretha Franklin, "Good Morning Heartache" by Billie Holiday, "Give Me One Reason" by Tracy Chapman, and "Love Sneaking Up on You" by Bonnie Raitt.

Robbie did 3 tours in Europe to packed houses each time.

When the Louisville Palace was renovated, Robbie was called to perform in Stagedoor Johnnie's, the adjoining nightclub. When the Palace booked Frank Sinatra, Tom Jones, Sheryl Crow, The Righteous Brothers and many others, Robbie and her band opened the shows.  David Crosby and Graham Nash specifically asked for Robbie Bartlett to perform before and after their concert.

B.B.King sent word back through his daughter (Shirley King) after hearing me sing with her and her band, " Who is that? I like her voice".

Robbie is in high demand at outdoor festivals, weddings, birthdays, country club activities, and fundraisers.
