Out of Nowhere

 Robert Lorayne

Some artists make absolutely everything sound easy, and singer-songwriter Robert Lorayne is one of them.  An accomplished guitarist, Lorayne’s new CD Out of Nowhere, explores matters of the heart – love, loss, and change – with a gush of musical poignancy and depth.

Several songs tackle the heartache of romantic relationships gone awry.  In “I’m on the Flore,” he tells the story of an abrupt departure: You left me lying on the floor, a cool breeze and a slamming door.

“Little Baby” is tender and joyful: Oh little baby, you are everything to me.  Oh little baby you are everything I need.

The title song, “Out of Nowhere,” deals with the loss of the familiar: I felt somewhere and never felt alone, out of nowhere, I look around and you were gone.

Every moment of this record bears Lorayne’s stamp, with original vocals.

My take: 

not for me, but that’s just me!
