Bio
Robin Peacocke is a Toronto-based singer/songwriter who was given her first guitar at the age of twelve and has been playing and singing ever since.
Inspired at an early age by the acoustic sounds of John Denver and Gordon Lightfoot, Robin describes her music as a blend of pop and folk, with an occasional taste of country thrown in for good measure. She has been writing songs for over twenty years and draws on the joys and heartbreaks of everyday life for her inspiration. “I write about emotions and situations I have experienced” she says. “When I sing my songs, I am sharing a part of myself with the audience.”
In the early 1990's, Robin co-founded the acoustic duo “Wildwood Flowers”, performing original and cover tunes at various venues in and around the Toronto area, including Harbourfront and the Women in Country, Folk & Blues Festival in Sunderland, Ontario. She also found the time to pursue her interest in jazz and graduated as a vocal major from the Humber College Jazz Studies/Commercial Music Program, where she won the Gordon Delamont Award for composition.
Robin has just released her debut CD "Free to Fly".
