Rob Blackledge was pretty good at baseball, but after some serious thought made the decision to go for the less profitable career of musician. He attended Nashville's Belmont University, won a a school talent competition and hit the road with a guitar and a keyboard, gigging endlessly.
His debut album Inside These Walls follows the blueprint of artists like Billy Joel and Ben Folds - songs centered around his piano chops, with a few strains of hillbilly country (Sweet Sweet Lady), bu the more interesting songs like Granola Girl are more percussive or have the added attraction of a brass section (Early Morning Riser).
Inside These Walls is released thru One Revolution Entertainment.
