Robin The Cellist
Robin Lane’s passion for music ignited at a young age when he began playing the cello, studying through both the Farmington public schools and The Hartt School of Music at the University of Hartford. After graduating high school, Robin moved to Amherst, MA to pursue a degree in Social Thought and Political Economy at the University of Massachusetts. It was there, through African drumming and music theory courses, that Robin rediscovered his passion for music. He withdrew from UMass to devote himself to a private music education.
Shortly after, Robin relocated to Rockland, ME, to continue pursuing his music education at Midcoast Music Academy (MCMA) and Woodsound Studios. It was there that he began to explore other genres on the cello. Studying privately allowed Robin to explore other musical interests, leading him to discover that he deeply enjoys and has a natural skill for audio engineering. Beginning with teaching assisting, Robin worked his way up at Midcoast Music Academy, serving as the Operations Manager from 2016 through 2019, supporting young musicians and encouraging music education in the community.
Robin currently attends the University of Southern Maine where he is pursuing a Bachelor of Music in Performance with a concentration in composition. Robin performs classical, jazz, and contemporary works for public events, private events, and weddings throughout New England. Notable performance venues include Camden International Film Festival, One Long Fellow Square, and Maine Yoga Festival. In addition to performing, Robin records, engineers, and produces his own music, along with the music of a growing number of local musicians, out of his studio, Robin’s Nest Recording in Rockland. On the rare occasion that Robin is not involved in music, you might find him spending quiet time in nature, practicing yoga, or enjoyably working on his 1995 Subaru Legacy.
