About

In 2016, Robert met a beautiful woman with a funny accent at a party in LA. Try as he might, he was completely overtaken by this strange, exotic woman from The Land Down Under. Employing her Aussie charms, she whisked him away to start a new life with her in the Southern Hemisphere. Recently married, Robert is now happy to call Melbourne home.

FAQ

I started singing professionally in weddings when I was 12 years old. Since then, I’ve sung regularly in many types of weddings...religious and secular, traditional and contemporary, etc.

I've performed during wedding ceremonies as well as receptions, and the broad range of tastes, styles, and requests I've accommodated over the years has honed my versatility.    

I have a master’s degree in Vocal Performance from the top vocal school in the USA: the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. I studied opera and classical art song, but I also have extensive experience singing pop, rock, and musical theater. I have performed in many of the most prominent venues in Los Angeles, both with a band and as a solo artist.     

I am a bit of a chameleon.

Most of the weddings I perform in are contemporary, and I play/sing in a pop/folk style that’s compared to that of Ed Sheeran, Jason Mraz, and Justin Timberlake. 

For weddings that are more traditional, I employ my classical training for a slightly different aesthetic. In this style, my singing is often compared to Josh Groban’s. Actually, there is a recording on my SoundCloud of me performing a Josh Groban song “To Where You Are.” Listening to that will give you a good idea of what I mean!

The bottom line: I’m happy to talk to couples about their musical preferences and adapt accordingly. 

Absolutely! In the past, I’ve even “reworked” the lyrics of a song completely to fit the story of the wedding couple. I’m happy to learn new music that is special to the bride and groom. 

Yes. I have my own PA system that provides excellent sound quality and sound dispersion. My system works beautifully for smaller and medium-sized venues. For large venues, I work with a sound rental company to ensure I have what I need.

Yes again. Depending on the distance, my rate may change. Talk to me, and we can figure it out!

If you’re interested, please contact me. I like to call all of my prospective clients and have a brief, friendly chat about their wedding plans. After I have a good idea of their needs, I can put together a quote.

Robert Rothko was the musician at my wedding in August 2015. He sang "I Will Be Here," "Me And You," "There Is Love," "In This Very Room," and "Ave Maria" during the ceremony. I chose Robert because he is a trained vocalist, and he has a beautiful voice. I received numerous compliments about Robert, and I would highly recommend him.

We had Robert sing at our wedding and we could not recommend him enough! He was great during the planning/postponement process (thanks covid) and many of our guests commented on how beautiful the music was. Robert was able to read the room and play the correct songs to compliment the mood.
