About the Band
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.
His latest CD Biggest Moments, release date February 26, 2022, 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 cowrite 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.
Rob often gets asked what he has been doing the last 18 months during COVID. The short version is that he made good use of his extended hiatus from the stage.
With the help of Marty Pawlina and his daughter Ellie, he also moved his Song Circle to Zoom during the COVID fiasco. He is also grateful to hit songwriters Steve Seskin and Harriet Schock who joined the Song Circle to teach and advise the attendees during the Zoom phase. The Song Circle is the first Monday every month.
The quality of Heath's songwriting has been widely recognized. Over the years accolades for his songs have been many: won first place in the Calgary Folk Music Festival "Songwriting Contest", won the New Folk competition at the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival, and won a Canadian Radio Music Award for "Songwriter of the Year", nominated for Canadian Folk Music Award's "Songwriter of the Year". Over 200 radio stations on six continents have played his music, and he's been on songwriting panels for AMIA, WCMA and SAC. He has had publishing deals with Glen Campbell Music, Don Goodman Music and Criterion/Atlantic Music.
