Robby's Story
Life
I'm divorced and now re-attached. Two grown boys, Aaron & Jake (22 & 26), by my marriage; a 9 year old stepson (Zach) and a 3 year old daughter Hayley Savannah) with my partner. We just bought a huge apartment in Harlem! Working on a variety of things - would it surprise you to know I stayed in music? To find out about that, do a search for me under music at myspace.
My sons are also musical - Jake is a composer and multi-instrumentalist who recently finished a CD (available on iTunes under the name Jake Strange).

His daughters are stunning! I've also seen Charlie Levine a couple of times over the years.

I'd love to hear from anyone who'd like to hear from me.
