I speak with singer songwriter Robby Hecht about all things indie-folksinger. He's been making and releasing music since before Spotify was a thing, and in addition to being a multi-award-winning songwriter, his songs have been recorded by more than 60 artists. Robby is currently in the process of releasing his latest album “Not a Number” and he just showcased at SXSW. He's got some hard-earned perspective on what's changed since the days of selling pressed CDs out of a tweed suitcase. We've co-written a few songs together, and we spend a good chunk of time talking about the unique music mothership that is the international Folk Alliance Conference. Somewhere in there we play a couple songs together from his new record.

Episode #95. Caroline Spence moved to Nashville eight years ago fresh out of college with a "vague dream" of writing songs, probably she thought for other artists. But as her network and her confidence grew, it became clear she needed to be out front. She released two solo indie albums and a duo project with Robby Hecht. She won a Kerville New Folk award and captured a lot of people's attention with her coursing country melodies and incisive observations. Now she's been signed to Rounder Records, who've released her latest Mint Condition. Also in the hour, a catch-up with Texas reared, Nashville based country bluesman Lee Roy Parnell. 

Robby Hecht graduated with Full-time Web Development Cohort 28. Through my time as a songwriter and performer, I’ve learned that while creativity can sometimes spring to life through sudden inspiration, it’s usually best served through collaboration, preparation and an ongoing desire to learn. In software development, I’ve found a field where I can apply these same values in a new and exciting context where we harness creativity to tackle tangible, information-driven challenges.

Robby Hecht is a songwriter with a mission. He took it up before college, because he decided he wanted to sing and that part of that process should be creating his own songs. That was 18 years (or, as he says, half his lifetime) ago. Now, living in Nashville, he is still writing songs, on his own and with collaborators including Amy Speace. Nashville songwriter, Robby Hecht paid Folk Alley a visit in the spring of 2015 to play some songs and tell us about his approach to songwriting.

At age 18, Robby Hecht made a "strangely confident and final" decision to commit to music as his calling and career. At college in Madison, Wisconsin, he poured out his first wave of song ideas but, as he approached performing, there were doubts. It was not until travels in Europe, a time in San Francisco where he formed the duo AllDay Radio, a move back to his hometown of Knoxville and a final shift to Nashville – that he learned he'd been suffering for years from bipolar disorder. Robby's newfound consistency and stability were rewarded with a rush of opportunities and victories. He placed second at the prestigious Telluride Troubadour Contest, a contest he would later win. He took a title at Kerrville New Folk Competition, a national nerve-center of contemporary songwriting.
