Rob is co-founder of Thievery Corporation, known for their electronic-infused modifications of dub, trip hop, reggae, and bossa nova. His prolific career is owed to his ever-evolving taste and diverse influences based off the cultures and styles encountered during his travels. His artistic foresight has always supported a fundamental motif of connecting people through music; such motivations have led him to opening for Paul McCartney, DJing in Nepal for climbers tackling Mt. Everest, to performing in the most obscure clubs in remote corners of the world. Rob blends musical influences from the past and future, melding modern electronic beats, global grooves and other-worldly rhythms into a fiery mixture of mystical and spirited sound.
