Robyn Ludwick

Genre: Country/Americana
Hometown: Austin, TX

While her schoolmates were embracing the rituals of small-town Texas; Robyn was teaching herself guitar and sneaking off to Austin, immersing herself in the city's wealth of live music. Eventually she'd settle there, where rent was paid working the door at the world famous Continental Club. Robyn shared many a lean meal with her brothers in those South Austin days. From their Goodwill couch, she plotted a stable future for her and the family she hoped to one day have. She shelved dreams of a career in music and enrolled in The University of Texas School of Engineering and eventually took work in that field. Just after she and husband John "Lunchmeat" Ludwick had their first child, and felt their road had been paved, Robyn was laid off. The intensity of such life changes woke Robyn's sleeping songwriter. "It just pretty much poured out at that point. I guess it was time, you know." Robyn cashed in her pension, and dove headlong into her craft.
