Gladden House Sessions 2017: Doc Robinson

Columbus-based Doc Robinson spent the better part of a year writing and recording songs forged from their love of classic soul and R&B records for their forthcoming full-length release. Core members John Elliott and Nick D’Andrea have already left an indelible mark on the Columbus music scene from their own successful bands (The Floorwalkers and Nick D & The Believers), but felt compelled to move forward together from the success of a songwriting partnership last year.

That fateful day produced an EP from the two, who are now preparing for the July release of their first full-length album. The two stopped by the Gladden House on day two of the Nelsonville Music Festival and delivered a soulful and stripped-down set. The two started off with the melodic track  “Deep End” from their forthcoming album. Elliot and D’Andrea went on to share their much-loved track “Heavy Like” and ended with the song “Summer Moon,” a soul-searching pop number that was written nearly eight years ago.
