If it is just live music you are looking for, I offer a 15-60 minute solo performance that includes a mixture of classic country songs and original songs with stories of how and why I wrote them. I also love to include audience participation if the mood of the event permits.
For weddings and corporate events, I specialize in writing and producing custom songs that help are used as the theme song of the event.
I work with you to create the perfect song for your event and then have it professionally produced in ultra high quality, ready to be presented as part of a live show or as a record at the event.
Chelsea was great to work with, a true professional. Not only was her performance amazing, but her ability to work the crowd was equally great. Her sister Marrisa's addition was beautiful. We are looking forward to the next time we can invite Chelsea out to preform for us.
I hired Chelsea Robson for an important event in January 2020. A check was processed, Chelsea confirmed and everything was planned. I had close to 30 senior citizen's waiting for her to perform.
5 minutes prior to my event, Chelsea called barely audible and cancelled! I couldn't hear the reason other than something to do with her car? You're cancelling 5 minutes before a major event with a car issue?
Then she emailed to state she would come out to perform for the residents at no charge. I took her up on it and gave her a date which she couldn't make. I never heard from her again!
VERY Unprofessional, disappointing and wouldn't trust booking her for an event. I'd give her 0 stars if possible.
Too bad as she appeared talented.
Response from Chelsea Robson:
Hello Anita,
Once again, I wanted to apologize for the stress my absence caused you. On the day of the original performance, I had gotten a flat tire. I asked your assistant if there was any way to postpone it an hour and was told no. I understand that you have a stressful job and keep to a tight schedule. I'm still very sorry that I wasn't able to make the appointment. I sent you a private message and hope to hear back because I still want to make it right.

She was fantastic! She wrote a custom song for our proposal that had me crying before I knew what was happening. She played along so well with my fiancé’s plan - I had no idea it was a set up until I saw the ring. She was so sweet and professional - we are going to try to hire her for our reception.

Chelsea performed for our RV chapter and entertained about 60 people. She had the crowd singing and clapping along with her throughout the event. Her singing voice is absolutely incredible and it was fun to scan the crowd while she was singing to see the amazement on everyone’s face as she hit the high notes. She performed many classics of cowboy music and her cover of Patsy Cline’s songs were spot on. After the show everyone kept talking about how the songs she wrote were so good, luckily we were able to purchase her CD’s to keep enjoying her new music.
If you want a crowd pleaser you can’t go wrong hiring Chelsea for your next event.
Response from Chelsea Robson:
Wayne, thank you so much! I was so glad to be there!
We had Chelsea here for our Christmas party. She gave a very good performance. All our guests enjoyed her wonderful voice and her nice performance. This was a very positive contribution to our Christmas event.
We can only recommend her for such parties, she will be the highlight, like she was in our party.
Chelsea is very professional. Chelsea’s voice is amazing and she sang both songs that we chose like an angel. Our guests were very impressed with her. Lovely individual!
Chelsea, we enjoyed your country music and your originals. You were one of the family and we hope to see you soon. Best of luck to you !

Grew up singing Classic Country at a western dinner theater doing 50-100 shows a year since I was 4 years old. For today's live shows, I love to bring a few of those classic songs back into my set but I also provide an "all ages" show with songs and energy levels that build a story, get people dancing, and bring them in emotionally.
When you book me for your live event, you are booking an artist with a lifetime of on stage performance experience. I will show up prior to doors opening with enough time for sound check and to check in with what you need from me.
Today, I also specialize in writing custom songs for all occasions. Some people give them as gifts and others use them for theme songs for their events. Check out (link hidden) for more information.
Custom Songs: I write every custom song from scratch to represent your unique love story or special event message. We will get together first, via a video conference call and go over your overall vision. Then I will have you fill out a questionnaire to help me build your custom song. I generally need a 2-4 week turnaround time before I can guarantee delivery but rush jobs are possible. When the song is done, it will be to the movie industry standard and ready to blow everyone away at your event!
I started my musical journey performing with my parents at a western dinner theater. I grew up on stage, performing over 100 shows a year, since I was 4 years old.
Starting at 15, I sang the National Anthem for the Chicago Cubs six years in a row. When I was 22, I organized a summer concert series that featured local Arizona bands and solo singers before taking some time off to server a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in northern California and in the south of Brazil.
After I returned, I fulfilled a dream of moving to Nashville to be a songwriter and performing artist. I loved every minute of my time there and still go back when time permits. I moved back to Arizona and, in 2018, my parents decided to close the Rockin' R Ranch and start a new chapter in their lives.
As I have closed the chapter of performing at the Rockin' R, I have started a new one of my own. Today, I'm writing songs that are inspired by real love stories. Each one is a beautiful example that love is real.
I can speak 3 languages, so every once in a while I try my hand at recording in them and for the last 8 years, I have had the opportunity to work backstage with international artists at the Grammys and Latin Grammys.
New media is one of my passions. My YouTube channels have over 7.5 million views. I'm a Podcaster. One of my shows has over a million downloads and has been nominated for 3 podcasting awards. I've also had songs used in film and national brand advertising.
What I provide for Live Shows: For small or medium size events, you also can count on the use of my Bose sound systems. For small house concerts under 40 people I have the Bose S1 speaker and for events up to 500 I use the Bose L1 Pro 16. Both setups provide crystal clear and balanced sound that will add value to your overall event without having to rent a system separately.
