London, Greater London, United Kingdom — Robert Caruso is a singer/songwriter/guitarist/recording artist from London, UK.

Robert does Rock’n’Roll in the widest sense of the term: rooted in the Blues and artists like Elvis, Dylan, Lennon, Hendrix, The Velvet Underground, The Stooges, Sly Stone, Bowie, Garage Rock and and early Punk Rock.
Robert Caruso is considered by many an underground legend, likely to be discovered by the mainstream both as an “emerging artist” who is almost an elder statesman of Rock’n’Roll. He goes against the grain of today’s mainstream popular music; while others are contrived, he’s inspired. The music industry creates labels, Robert Caruso’s music defies them with an original style and repertoire which includes much variety
Robert plays all instruments on his albums with rare exceptions. His 2020 acoustic When My Train Comes, rooted in the Delta Blues tradition, for instance, was recorded live in the studio with a 4-piece acoustic band. Journalists and artists alike, from Victor Bockris to Kim Fowley, have called him and his music “formidable” and “The best-kept secret in Rock’n’Roll”.
Robert has been a professional musician since his early teens. He has toured in Europe, the USA and beyond since the late 1980s. He performs either with a band or solo and acoustic. Over the years he has opened solo and acoustic for artists such as Ray Charles, John Lee Hooker, Pops Staples, John Hammond and others at Blues festivals, and for Rock artists like Steve Marriott, Nico, Johnny Thunders, Wilko Johnson and (Suicide’s) Alan Vega. He has also sang briefly with Elvis Presley’s original band and The Yardbirds who considered him as their lead singer.

ABOUT
Robert was born in Italy and moved to London on his own when he was 19. After his band The Electric Kids in the late 1980s, he performed solo and acoustic and his style absorbed influences from the Delta Blues tradition. His first album with worldwide distribution was released in 2012. His first three albums have elements that go from the Blues to early Rock’n’Roll, Garage Rock and 1977 Punk Rock. The 2020 album When My Train Comes was acoustic and rooted in Delta Blues. His songs are all self-contained stories based on real people and events, set in a metropolitan setting and sometimes with a social commentary. When it comes to his songwriting, Robert quotes Hank Williams: “People don’t write music. It’s given to them”.
