Robin's Discography

If there ever was a word that could best describe Irish-born vocalist Robin McAuley it would have to be believable. There are others that apply like, solid, melodic, truly talented, (okay that was two words) but believable is the one that may work best.

McAuley can move from style to style: Rock, Heavy Metal, Acoustic, even a little Gospel flavored R & B, and with every genre McAuley's performance is always "believable".

From his early days with Grand Prix, his platinum selling remake of Stairway To Heaven with TOTO frontman Bobby Kimball, and into his hit making years with McAuley Schenker Group, Robin has turned out consistent and memorable hit tracks like Love Is Not A Game, Anytime, and When I'm Gone.

After McAuley's MSG years Robin began a move into more R & B and acoustic oriented material. The outstanding R & B flavored Business As Usual and hauntingly beautiful acoustic driven tracks Only Friend, I'm Feeling It Now, and The Good Times from V-Project's own Lost Demos CD, demonstrate McAuley's ability to gracefully move from style to style.

After numerous guest appearances on various tribute CDs (even a Buick commercial covering The Edgar Winter Group's hit, Free Ride) McAuley one again finds himself back in the Rock driver's seat as front man for the ever-popular Survivor.

In between singing Survivor's monster hit-radio tracks like the iconic Eye of the Tiger, or the feel good vibe of High On You (#8 on Billboard's "Hot 100 singles" chart) McAuley has put together and released an EP of his own by way of his Hardcore Metal band called Bleed.

Lending his vocal and songwriting talents to V-Project for the New Machine CD Robin has hammered out 4 slammin new tracks. Like the many projects he's worked on Robin gives each of his four tracks just what they need to make them unique and memorable.

All hype aside, what I find really impressive is that (and those who have followed McAuley's career already know this) when listening to the various bands that Robin has worked with, regardless of the project you're listening to, McAuley's performance comes across as totally genuine. Or as mentioned above, believable. It's as if the only band he has ever worked with was the band whose music you were listening to. That's not easy to do. But for a singer with the experience of McAuley it's a standard we've come to expect from this talented vocalist.
