“The coffee comes from Kona…The songs come from the sea!”
Mehl describes the music he plays on guitar
and ukelele as acoustic beach-flavored
ballads with a hint of jazz. Rob has
released a number of cds of original
music, and tours regularly playing
festivals and house concerts
across the country.
Born in California, Rob spent a number of years living and surfing in Hawaii, where he was inspired by listening to the amazing stories of the local Waikiki beach boys,
as well as reading famed authors like Mark Twain,
John Steinbeck, and
Ernest Hemingway.
“I have been writing songs all my life…listening for the jewels of songs that are hidden amidst the sandy, pebbled, rocky shore of life. Rob Mehl is someone who consistently polishes the pebbles of ideas into glistening heirloom jewels. He is, hands down, the best songwriter I have ever had the great pleasure to know.”
