Born and raised in East Auckland, Jack Robertson traded his earlier years spent in rock bands and guitar competitions, to write folk/pop music with a rocky undercurrent that softens the boundaries of genres.

 

Robertson has released an album's worth of original music and performed frequently across his home city, making waves as he strengthens his fanbase from the roots up. Whether accompanied by a rock piece, string quartet or solo with his guitar, his honesty and vulnerability within his performance and songwriting is now turning heads overseas.

 

The success of his debut EP Risk of Rain — including two chart-topping singles — has propelled Robertson into a new era. The momentum earned him a label deal and national recognition, and with the EP now resonating widely, he’s taking his music abroad. Splitting his time between Aotearoa, Los Angeles and Nashville, he continues to write and grow, carving out a career that’s rapidly expanding far beyond home.
