Rob Snarski

<a href="spotify:artist:7gy3XpdCdC5BtZfTH4kZND" data-name="Rob Snarski">Rob Snarski</a> is a singer, a velvet-voiced troubadour.

His musical life began as a ten-year-old, playing a very heavy 120 button accordion gifted to him by his grandmother. He took up the guitar in his teens and formed Chad’s Tree in the 1980s with his singer, song-writer brother Mark.

Chad’s Tree released two albums, Buckle in the Rail and Kerosene along with several singles before Rob left to pursue his interest in words and melodies. He found his voice and the spotlight with part-time, holiday-band The Bottomless Schooners of Old, featuring members of <a href="spotify:artist:2kTn692duPSkqN6czSilyk" data-name="The Triffids">The Triffids</a>, later going on to share vocal duties with <a href="spotify:artist:6Elz2qLFnoivKS0AqEqdWu" data-name="David McComb">David McComb</a> in <a href="spotify:artist:1cbOix9QbWe1UMGtXOa5cI" data-name="The Blackeyed Susans">The Blackeyed Susans</a> and singing the songs penned by McComb and founding member Phil Kakulas.
