Liner Notes:

About the Album

Edmonton-based singer/songwriter Rob Heath is first and foremost a storyteller. He has a keen eye for observance of the human condition and an ardent ear for putting it all to music.

When putting together the final list of songs for a new album, sometimes the pieces don’t fit and you think, “What the….” But, when it finally comes together, it is brilliant. It isn’t because the lyrics are clever, though they are. It isn’t because the music has you humming and tapping your feet, though it does. The common theme is that most of the songs are about people showing kindness to others without any expectations. Biggest Moments takes us away from what’s going on in the world currently for just a little while.

Rob says, “I've always been attracted to random acts of kindness. You know there's a lot of bad things happening in the world now and you know people are tired of all the negativity out there. Most of the songs are about people at their best, people doing good things to each other”

His latest album Biggest Moments are the best 11 songs of the over 30+ songs that he cut and produced over the past year in his studio in downtown Edmonton. All but one song (“The Game” which is a co-write with Spencer Heath and the late Kathy Kirby and recorded by Stew Kirkwood at Sound Extractor) are produced, sung, played, recorded and edited by Rob himself and mixed by long time associate Cam Ambrose.
