•A soulful blend of R&B, jazz, Motown, reggae, pop, and classics people actually know and connect with
Professional sound and smooth communication from booking to performance

•Solo, duo, or trio options for different budgets and atmospheres
•Custom song selections and special requests when discussed ahead of time

About

Rob Lee is a New York-based multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, composer, arranger, and performer known for delivering curated live music experiences that blend jazz, soul, and R&B with timeless intention. A former U.S. Marine Bandsman and graduate of Florida A&M University, his journey is rooted in discipline, global perspective, and a deep commitment to musical excellence. Born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida, Rob’s musical foundation was shaped early within the church - where he first developed his ear, musical sensitivity, and the emotional depth that now defines his sound and connection to live instrumentation - alongside classical training across multiple instruments, from horns to keys. His upbringing, spanning church, jazz ensembles, and Grammy Award–recognized performing arts programs, cultivated both the technical precision and soulful depth that define his sound today. In recent years, Rob has built a growing digital audience through viral and fan-favorite covers of classic and contemporary records, reinterpreting songs from artists he admires with a signature warmth and soul. Known to many as “The Music Man” , his online presence has become an extension of his live experience - drawing listeners in through nostalgia, musicianship, and authenticity. Now based in New York City, Rob performs throughout the region, seamlessly merging his classical training with modern soul influences to create immersive, feel-driven performances. Whether on stage or online, his mission remains the same: to make people feel.
