Teddy Robb
Teddy Robb has a slight sense of grit lurking underneath his smooth delivery, and a hint of down-home charm is what distinguished him among the country vocalists singing a blend of pop, R&B, and country during the late 2010s. His pair of 2019 singles, "Really Shouldn't Drink Around You" and "Tell Me How," showcased how his light touch sounded equally at home on ballads and cheery, soulful pop. He maintained this mellow vibe on a series of singles in 2021 and 2022, which were collected as the Get Away With It EP in 2022.
Growing up in Akron, Ohio, Teddy Robb was besotted with sports and the outdoors as an adolescent. While he was attending Kent State, his head was turned by "Troubadour," a meditative 2008 hit by George Strait. "Troubadour" led Robb to pursue a career in country music. He started gigging in Ohio, eventually making it to Nashville in 2013. Once he arrived in the Music City, he began gigging on Broadway, slowly making connections in the country music business. He sharpened his voice by playing ski lodges in Vail, Colorado, then headed back to Nashville.
Robb signed to Monument in 2018, releasing his debut single, "Lead Me On," by the end of the year. "Really Shouldn't Drink Around You," a number written by Shane McAnally, Josh Osborne, and Old Dominion's Trevor Rosen, became Robb's second single in 2019. "Tell Me How" followed shortly afterward.
Robb released two variations on "Heaven on Dirt" in 2020 and 2021--the latter was an acoustic version--before issuing "Whiskey Can't," a ballad that performed well on streaming services. "Cigarettes'll Kill Ya" followed in 2021, with "1500" appearing in 2022 prior to the release of the Get Away With It EP.
