ROBIN S
New York’s own multiple awarding Robin S owned the dance floors with her hit single ‘Show Me Love’ in the 90’s. She has continued to make an impact across the globe with singles such as ‘Love For Love’, ‘What I Do Best’, ‘I Want To Thank You’ and ‘It Must Be Love’ as well as TV appearances and a string of tours around the globe.
Robin S, born and raised in Queens, New York, began singing at the age of five in a church choir. At the age of fifteen, Robin went to join both jazz and cover bands in the New York metropolitan area, performing at dinner clubs, lounges and other venues. These years gave her the experience and contacts that led to her first gold single, the worldwide chart-topping smash and dance music classic – remixed with great success by Stonebridge – ‘Show Me Love’. The success of ‘Show Me Love’ gave rise to collaborations with a variety of producers including Junior Vasquez, Nick Martinelli and David Morales.
