The
music of Robby Hecht represents a return to the
early 70s golden era of acoustic pop where
thoughtful, well-crafted lyrics were blended with
timeless melodies to impact mainstream music and
culture. His debut album Late Last Night, produced
by Lex Price (Mindy Smith) and mixed by Roger
Moutenot (Yo La Tengo, Roseanne Cash), was released
in May of 2008 and features an impressive list of
guest performers including Mindy Smith, Jeff Coffin,
Thad Cockrell, Jill Andrews of the Everybodyfields,
John Deaderick (Patty Griffin), Andrea Zonn (James
Taylor) and more.
Raised in Knoxville, Tennessee, Robby first began
writing and performing while attending The
University of Wisconsin-Madison, developing and
pairing his soulful voice and unique finger-style
guitar. After spending time living in Paris and San
Francisco including a period fronting the band
AllDay Radio, he eventually returned to his home
state, settling in Nashville.
