简介

Robyn Ludwick did two things that will forever imprint her career: She chose not to use her illustrious maiden name, Robison, and she waited until she was good and ready to seriously pursue music. Growing up in Bandera, Texas with her two brothers and sister, some of Robyn's earliest memories were those falling asleep across folding chairs in Texas dancehalls where her grandparents danced to live music every weekend. Or running barefoot through Bandera's Purple Cow, where her mother tended bar as "Whiskey River" and "Rolling with the Flow" played for the millionth time on the jukebox. "Where I come from, music was always there…my father told me that they set up my crib at Floores Country Store so that they could see Willie Nelson play." Teaching herself play the guitar at age 15, Robyn's influences were far beyond her years (Jackson Browne, Van Morrison, Emmylou Harris) listening to albums already 20 years old. As a teenager, she was slipping off to Live Music Capital Austin, Texas every weekend to hear music. Inevitably, Robyn moved to Austin immediately after high school and soon married Austin bassist John Ludwick. Just after she and husband John had their first child, and felt their road had been paved, a set of intense life changes woke Robyn’s sleeping songwriter at age 30. "It just pretty much poured out at that point. I guess it was time, you know." Robyn dove headlong into her craft, taking on a music career that she feared would be overshadowed by the wealth of family talent that came before her (older brothers Charlie and Bruce Robison and in-laws Kelly Willis and Dixie Chick Emily Robison). The critics also agreed that it was time, as Ludwick’s 2005 debut For So Long, produced by Danny Barnes (Dave Mathews), was named a top 10 album of the year by both the Austin Chronicle, and renowned Austin public radio station 90.5 KUT-FM. It went to No. 1 on the Euro-Americana Music Chart and earned her a raved-about No Depression SXSW showcase and a slot at the Austin City Limits Music Festival. Robyn’s 2011 album, Out of these Blues, was a pivotal time in her music and writing. Critically acclaimed Out of these Blues, received numerous accolades including Top 10 Album honors from Austin City Limits, No Depression, Texas Music Magazine and 93.3 KGSR as well as Best Album of the year by the Texas Music Scene, No Depression’s Best Female Musicians and nominations for Best Female Vocalist and Best Singer-Songwriter-Folk at the Lone Star Music Awards. This album features a dizzying cast, including Producer/Multi-Instrumentalist Gurf Morlix (Lucinda Williams), Ian “Mac” MacLagan (Rolling Stones), and Gene Elders (George Strait, Lyle Lovett). Robyn Ludwick grew up in Bandera, Texas with older brothers Charlie and Bruce Robison. Named the “most formidable” writer of the Robison’s, Robyn’s music and story-telling has been called “The Best of Americana and the Best of Texas”. Robyn's songs have been covered on recent releases by brothers Charlie Robison (HighLife, 2013) and Bruce Robison & Kelly Willis (Our Year, 2014). Robyn has just completed Little Rain, a set of eleven originals produced by Gurf Morlix. Critics agree that 2014 is her year.
