Robert K. Wolf

With his engaging, versatile, and inimitable American style, Robert K. Wolf has garnered attention from listeners, writers, performers, and industry players alike.
Born and raised in the New York metropolitan area, Wolf honed his skills in coffee houses, clubs, folk festivals, and concert halls. In 1995, Wolf peered into New York City’s Fast Folk Cafe and was inspired by the venue/magazine’s vivid history of cultivating and documenting the work of performing artists. Wolf quickly developed a reputation as a formidable songwriter and player, which prompted Fast Folk’s founder and legendary singer/songwriter Jack Hardy to take him on as guitarist and backing vocalist for two European tours and his eleventh album, The Passing.
In Nashville since the mid-nineties, Wolf has continued to impress: he’s cowritten with some of the best, including Sony/ATV/Big Alpha staff writer Lisa Carver, CMA Song of the Year winner Rand Bishop, Top 10 writer Barbara Cloyd, 1 country writer Jason Matthews, and Kerrville New Folk winners Scott Carter, Cheley Tackett and Joseph Brunelle, as well as countless others.
Wolf’s new full-length CD, Drivin’ You Away, has kicked his career up a notch. Upon hearing the recording, Wolf Music (no relation) signed every song on the album to a publishing contract. Drivin’ You Away is going for adds in May 2007, and Wolf is set to hit the road in full support.
