The Blue Room Sessions……

I’ve been working on my new CD “The Blue Room Sessions” with my friend Jean at JB recording studio in Almelo Holland. We are just puting the final touches on it and it should be available for Delivery by Santa! The Blue Room Sessions are a compilation of some of my favorite Blues standards (…in the style of Robert Cotton of course…) and Robert Cotton originals. These handsome fella’s brought their magic on Bass (Martin), Lead guitar (Bert) and drums( George)……….

Abteikirche Offenbach-Hundheim….

...the date was 14 October 2023… the place….an old church in Offenbach-Hundheim Germany. Who knew this would be one of the most memorable performances for “Acoustic Cotton” to date……. I can not express in words the emotional high that I experienced in this magical place….. Thank you Abteikirche for inviting Robert Cotton -Acoustic Cotton- to perform our song for the passionate Blues lovers in attandance.

..the Blues is in me and its got to come out……

….My Sweet Home Chicago!……

Time to Live Again!!

News Flash!!

Celebrating a New Year. 

New Beginning. 

New Hopes & Dreams….

2022 starts with a new Blues Project…..

“Robert Cotton’s Southern Brotherhood”

I Can’t say too much right now but ……. you wont be disappointed friends!

STAY TUNED!

Hello Folks, well here we are. We survived 2021!

It was indeed a challenge at times. I surely know I had my share of challenges to attend to… I am sure you all did as well.

As far as Music is concerned, a very quiet year…too quiet. We had a lot of time available for organizing, creating songs, polishing guitars……. some times it just made me want to SCREAM!

oh… and I did a little side gig in 2021 called #“The Voice of Germany”… started back in December of 2020 while watching TV, an advertisement appeared for TVOG…. I thought hmmm …might be fun! Nothing else going on, …. gigs being cancelled, couldn’t even get together with my friends to rehearse, life was void of all social, artistic, pretty much all we know as normal human stimulation / interaction …. But you know all that, you were there!

It was a wonderful, once in a life time experience, working with fantastic professionals, TVOG team, the Voice coaches, #Naomivandooren, #catt that showed me how to take care of my voice, ….they showed me that just by smoking a cigar and drinking a Bourbon before going on stage won’t cut it…. and of course, the great bunch of young singers that made me feel like I was 28 again…. I made it up to the Quarter final, when it was all over for me, I was sad and it felt empty. …. But then after a couple days, contacts with fellow musicians, friends, words of congratulations for having achieved so much, I was motivated again and began setting up rehearsal and performance schedules, made the necessary contacts for my new #”The fabulous Robert Cotton Band” CD,…….. I am back in the game!

Thanks The Voice of Germany…….for this Fantastic Journey it was!

I am looking forward to a FABULOUS 2022 filled with Life.…… great music, great friends, great memories!

“Never Stop!” 

“The past is a memory …. make your memories unforgettable!”

It’s time to get my Mojo Work’n!

No rehearsals, no live preformances, no meeting with my musical families….its been damn hard…

We are all finding our own way to maintain mental stability and our level of musical expertise during these strange times we find our selves having to cope with.

My music has helped me maintain a sense of normality when life around me has challenged me in more ways than I wish to say.

But today the sun is shining again, summer is on the horizon, I have a guitar in my hands, a song in my soul and a glass of good wine on the table

.…we will be just fine until we meet again and play our Blues for you.
