Robert Vincent (is an English, Liverpool based and country music singer-songwriter, who was born in Crosby, England.[1]

This is a singer songwriter firmly in the 'Americana' genre, with apparent influences from both country and blues singers.

Tours extensively, mainly in a support capacity (as of 2015), although 2015 is due to see his first headline tour with his band, so his growing popularity may change this over time.

Robert's first album was released in download, and two forms of physical CD. The two forms of physical CD are a traditional single CD with 12 tracks, and a 'Deluxe' version that used a book style CD cover (mirroring a line from the title track of the album), with a bonus CD adding more tracks.


Described by Andrew Harrison (editor of Q) as "the scouse Springsteen",[2] Vincent is influenced by a range of music genres including Americana, 1970s English music and country music[3] as well as his Merseyside roots.[4] He toured extensively throughout 2012 as well as releasing a string of singles and EPs.[5]

His debut album Life In Easy Steps was released by DB industries on 28 January 2013.[6] His follow up, I'll Make The Most Of My Sins was released in February 2017.

In 2020, the Ethan Johns produced album In This Town You're Owned was released. It would go on to win the UK Americana Awards UK Album of the Year and Vincent was named UK Artist of the Year.[7]
