Rob Hinkal performs online for our ‘Inside the Song’ Series — a concert/interview hybrid. I’ve wanted to host Rob for a long time. He is a beautiful mystery to me — the way he masters every inch of his guitar while composing a lyric that stirs our consciousness with stories that dabble in social commentary, philosophical ideas and poetry. This is the cutting edge!

Inside the Song is a peek into the artist and songwriter’s mind during the act of creation. It’s an opportunity for fans/music lovers and songwriters to glean a deeper understanding of the back stories, the judgements, the skill set, and the guidelines that influenced the artists we admire in making the songs we love. Tina Ross, host of the series, who is a singer-songwriter herself, will guide us all through an hour of music. You will get to ask your questions in the comment section during the show.
Inside the Song is usually the second Thursday of every month.

ROB HINKAL
Someone once told Rob that what he does to his guitar is illegal in three states. They meant it as a compliment. As a songwriter and performer, more official compliments have taken the form of honors from the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest (Gold, 2020), Kerrville Folk Festival (Grassy Hill New Folk Competition), the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival (Emerging Artist, Most-Wanted Artist), Washington Area Music Awards (multiple WAMMIES for “Best Contemporary Folk Group”) and others.

Rob spends his Life fronting his energetic brand of new-folk band ilyAIMY with Heather Aubrey Lloyd, Kristen Jones, Rowan Corbett, Sharif and Joey Jenkins. Rob pushes hard to be the trouble that he’d like to see in the world, creating community and music within his band ilyAIMY’s fanbase and his award-winning, nationally-recognized open mics. He is the technical director of Institute of Musical Traditions, the executive director of FocusMusic, and a freelance audio and video engineer working closely with additional clients when and if he sees fit.
“With Rob’s uncanny vocals & distinctive annunciation & the unbelievable percussive playing style, there’s a lot to listen to…” ~ Shea Carver, Encore Magazine
