Songwriter Spotlight: Robert Landau

Robert Landau grew up in Montreal, Canada and has lived in the Northern Canadian Mining towns, the deep south of panhandle Florida, and western states including Portland, Oregon where he currently lives.  With four released albums of solo acoustic guitar driven songs, he has led the troubadour’s life playing in crowded saloons, vibrant music festivals, honky tonks and coffee houses across North America for over 20 years.  His songs are driven by complex characters, romantic imagery and an existential spirituality that capture the listener’s imagination.  He joins us on Backstory Song to discuss songs from his newest release A Thousand Little Lies and some of the audience favorites from his earlier albums.  On this episode, Robert shares his backstory on “Montreal Tonight,” “Tallahassee",” “Landmark Saloon,” “I Don’t Know You Yet",” “Sunday Morning," “Shelter In Place” and “The Flu: A Folk Song.”
