About Dancin’ Dawg Productions & Robbie G

Round Trip: Sonny Daze Playing Bass at Toad's Place

Hello and welcome to Dancin’ Dawg Productions. This website has been created for you! My name is Robbie G, and I am a singer, songwriter, percussionist, guitarist, sound consultant, DJ, founder/owner of DDP, but basically just an all around good guy. Please spend some time on this website checking out the music, songs, and lyrics associated with Dancin’ Dawg Productions. This site not only showcases original music and lyrics written by Robbie G. and close friends, but it also provides event dates, music, information, videos, and photos for the following bands:

Dancin’ Dawg Productions provides live music; small venue sound consulting and engineering; and personalized DJ services for parties and special events. Additionally, Robbie G. & Friends can write songs and lyrics for any occasion in any genre; specializing in pop, jazz, classic rock, rhythm and blues, and music with an earthy, Native American sound. Would you like a jingle for an ad? No problem. Would you like a song written to commemorate your special event?  Robbie G. also has been providing listeners, for over 15 years, with his groovin’ percussive talents. He is often asked to play his percussions with various funk, blues, and jambands on the East Coast, but enjoys, just as well, playing his electrifying congas/percussions to his local friends and fans.

                                      

“Songwriting comes easy for me and I enjoy making music for others. I often compose lyrics and music with an acoustic guitar. I then record it with other talented musicians. My songs usually provide the listener with a good mental image of what the song is about. I like for the listener to be able to bean active listener and have the ability to make a connection with a song.” Robbie G.

“Throughout the last 20 years, I have also been inspired by American history and music, including Native American and Hawaiian culture, as such, many of my songs stem from this inspiration.” Robbie G.

Dancin’ Dawg Productions says thanks to the following musical artists for being the inspiration behind the music showcased on this site… Bob Dylan, the Grateful Dead, the Band, the Neville Brothers, Bob Marley, Steel Pulse, James Brown, the Radiators, Widespread Panic, all the Woodstock and Monterey Pop musicians, the music of Motown, and many of the classic rock bands of the 60s and 70s. And, let’s not forget songwriter, Burt Bacharach.

The Beatles, Cream, the Rolling Stones, the Clash, the Who, the Police, Pink Floyd, Traffic, and U2 are some of my European inspirations. I’d also like to thank jazz legends such as Stanley Turrentine, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, David Sanborn, and Branford Marsalis. Throughout the last 20 years, I have also been inspired by Native American history and music. As such, many of my songs stem from this inspiration. I am so grateful to these artists and so many others that have inspired my songwriting and music..
