About Rob Black
Rob's father used to pick guitar to help him face a day's work in the mines. As he played, his son watched, and soon it was Rob who was picking out tunes. And growing up in the Central Queensland town of Middlemount meant that Rob had little to do but hone his talents on the guitar. He taught himself complicated Chet Atkins solos one note at a time using the pause button on a cassette player. It may not have been an orthodox approach, but it worked. Rob was accepted into the Queensland Conservatorium of Music at the age of 17. Rob has been playing to country music crowds throughout Australia as part of the band The Kelly Gang. Rob's big break came in January 2007 when he entered the Toyota Starmaker competition, which resulted in him being offered a contract with Compass Brothers Records.
